Fuck me gently with a chainsaw!  I had made a lot of changes to my inbox
(deleted 200 of the 900 messages in it.)  My emacs crashed.  No problem,
I think, I'll just recover the auto-save file.

So I restart, and start up VM.  It doesn't get new mail because it realizes
that the autosave is newer.  Cool.  But then what happens?  IT DOES AN 
AUTO-SAVE!!  VM trashed my changes with its current, bogus state.  Hey, 
how about some foreplay next time?
