Consider The Mail Suite (TMS):
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1052

I used to use this for many years when I was on 32-bit Microsoft
Windows. Since I moved to 64 bit, I have not been able to find or to
build Vim with support for 64 bit perl, and so am not sure what tweaks
will need to be done to make it work under 64 bit Microsoft Windows and
64 bit perl. Also, when I had access to a linux system, I had verified
that TMS works there; no idea what tweaks will need to be done to make
TMS work under newer linux releases.
