    Mark metamail.el as obsolete (Bug#41388)
    
    The metamail package was last released in 1994, and has been removed
    from most GNU/Linux distributions due to being buggy and unmaintained.
    
    * lisp/mail/metamail.el: Move from here...
    * lisp/obsolete/metamail.el: ...to here.
    * etc/NEWS: Mention its obsoletion.
