In XEmacs 21.4.2x the default value for `mail-user-agent' is
`sendmail-user-agent'.  So, you've customized it, haven't you?
Haven't you customized it further?  Try evaluation the following
forms in the *scratch* buffer (type `C-j' at the end of every line):

(get 'message-user-agent 'composefunc)
(get 'message-user-agent 'sendfunc)
(get 'message-user-agent 'abortfunc)
(get 'message-user-agent 'hookvar)

In XEmacs 21.4.22 I got:
message-mail
message-send-and-exit
message-kill-buffer
message-send-hook

Furthermore, `message-mail' may be able to be customized to run
differently (to use a VM command for example).  I don't know though.

How about to try changing the value of `mail-user-agent' to
`gnus-user-agent'?  I.e.: (setq mail-user-agent 'gnus-user-agent)
