So I took a stab at this a couple of times, but since I have negative
understanding of elisp and how it all works, I've had to give up.
Especially since I can't figure out why the mini-buffer won't wrap
long lines anymore in 28.x. So if anyone else can step up, that would
be awesome. I still love vm for email day to day. It's quick, simple
and just works. Ok, it's not quick for imap work at all, but for most
things it's really nice.
