This may seem stupid and obvious, but it does appear to be a bug:

If you edit a message, and then exit the folder containing that
message, emacs later signals the error:
"Wrong type argument: stringp, nil"
when you attempt to C-c C-c, "vm-edit-messae-end"

It does, however do the right thing if the folder is still
loaded up, but the message has been removed.  In that case, it reports:
"The original copy of this message has been expunged"

Another bug: 
   Unfortunately, I haven't had the time to track it down very far... 
Often, if I have vm loaded up, but am working in another
buffer, I simply execute the command "M-x vm".  This results 
in the error:
"Wrong type argument: arrayp, nil"
Under vm-5.31, this would just select the vm buffer and
get all my new mail.  (note that I also changed a few
of the configuration variables when I switched to vm-5.32)


Also.. after reading most of my backlog bug-vm mail, I realized
that the autosave infinite loop bug I reported the other day
has been rehashed on this list a few times already.. sorry about that.

   HAVE A DAY
