"But the expressing of {fe'o} and {mu'o} instead of {fa'o} is probably
more correct with respect to the meaning."

Thanks for this tip. I have read the associated passage in the
"Reference Grammar" and have learned this:
{mu'o} means "I have finished this part of my text/speech. But I want
you to continue the conversation (and perhaps I will respond to your
utterance)."
{fe'o} means "The complete conversation is over."
{fa'o} means "This is the end of the text. I assume that a computer will
use this text."
Is this correct? I have read that {fe'o} is used for "The Email is
over"; but isn't {mu'o} appropriate?
Are both "MIxael" and "MIxa,el" identically pronounced and both allowed?
.co'omi'e MIxael.
