Giving RET (vm-goto-message) a prefix argument with point in the summary buffer fails if vm-follow-summary-cursor is non-nil and the cursor has moved. I realize the doc-string says: If vm-follow-summary-cursor is non-nil this command first tries to follow the summary cursor to a new message. If a new message is selected in this way, no further action is taken. I.e. you can move the cursor in the summary buffer, press RETURN and select a new message without typing in a message number. I often use C-v, M-v, M-<, and M-> to move around in the summary buffer. If I'm lucky and I land on a message I want to read, then I can press RET. If not, then I have to use C-p and/or C-n to get the cursor to the right message because 3 1 RET ignores my choice of message 31 and selects the message where the cursor is instead. I typically press RET with no prefix after a successful C-s in the summary buffer, so I don't want to set vm-follow-summary-cursor to nil. If I give vm-goto-message a prefix argument, I would prefer that it not be ignored. This behavior was also present in vm5.31. -Jerry
