Package: vm
Version: 8.0.13-1
Severity: normal
It appears that the current squeeze version of vm has introduced
a new bug. When replying with R to a message which has mime-encoded
text, lenny's vm would decode the text, making it visible in the
reply as it is being composed. The squeeze version includes just
a mime attachment of the original message, which is very unhelpful.
I am using emacs23, though I think the problem also occurs in emacs22.
For reference, I am including the vm part of my .emacs file.

Version: 8.20b-1
Hi,
the new 8.20b version seems to have returned to decoding the
mime and yanking it into the ne message window.
