vm-edit-message let you do any needed editing.  I don't think
vm-resend-message needs to have this built-in.

Actually that wasn't what I had in mind.  vm-resend-message was a
simple answer to Elm's "bounce" command.

Yah, I decided that someone someday is going to enter a space
separated list, so I just turned white space into commas.
Probably a bad decision.
