   Bug, I guess.  vm-resend-message hands the message straight to
   sendmail, without processing aliases.  Aliases aren't really a
   part of VM, so I do have some excuse for forgetting them.

This wouldn't be a problem if there was an option where vm-resend-message
simply created a ready-to-send mail mode buffer.  I think that would be
really neat.
