VM 5.32 bug -- <SPACE> pages down too far...

	When I select a mail message from the summary window (keeping
my cursor in the summary window) and try to read it using the SPACE
bar to page down, it pages too far down in the message, so I miss some
lines and have to back up. 
	
	In other words, I complete the visible portion of the message,
hit SPACE, and the new top line in the message window is several lines
below (the amount varies) the old bottom line -- so there are some
lines that never got displayed.

	This happens in Emacs under X Windows and also when dialing up
through modem (vt100). The versions of Emacs that I am using are 18.59
and 19.0.54 (pre-Alpha, I guess), and this problem occurs in both of
them. This didn't happen in VM 4.41, which is what I was using before
I started using VM 5.32.

	I hope this is helpful -- please let me know if I can clarify
anything for you. And, by the way, multiple mail/reply buffers are a
big win... thanks!!! (assuming the author of VM is reading this).
