Hi there!

Last weekend I changed my mailer.  I used to use MH but now decided to
give VM a shot.  I noticed that VM seems to be able to read MH folders
packed with packf (I think the file is in a format called mmdf after
that).  Now VM doesn't display all the messages in the summary-buffer
when I am visiting a folder that is in the mmdf-format.  It seems to
think that some messages are just one big message and displays only
the first one of them.

I used MH 6.7.2 and VM 5.32.  Does this work OK for anyone else?

I saved a couple of messages in the file that was in mmdf-format.
They don't show up in the summary buffer at all. They are there
because by selecting the last message and scrolling to it's end I see
that the messages are there appended to the end.

Another thing yet: I am having the summary-buffer displayed all the
time.  When I want to reply to a message, the reply-buffer is placed
in the small window that had summary-buffer in it.  Is there a way to
make it automatically grow the window or to use the bigger window the
messge-buffer was in?

Thank you.
