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

It should be possible to have it ask for a comment; the obvious place to
put such a comment is in a "Resent-Comments:" header line (which could be
as long as necessary, using header line wrapping).

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

I'm confused; what does Elm's bounce command have to do with not handling
comma separated lists????

   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.

Agreed.  Could you please fix this?
