In the manifest file of an "integrated spam-reporting add-in", The MoreInfo tag has some side effects.
If not specified, the PreProcessingDialog and PostProcessingDialog Description texts are not displayed.
However, according to the documentation, it should only hide the MoreInfoText and MoreInfoUrl.
