No news, unfortunately, I haven't had the time to play with it.  It was
next on my TODO list, actually, but that has a 1+ month granulatiry :)

I was about to start adding the TRAMP compatibility functions that
Michael Albinus kindly told me were needed.  The underlying store/fetch
functionality should be all right, except it doesn't do attachments so
the message is always one big text chunk.  You could, instead, make the
message contain metadata and put the payload in an attachment.

It's all yours if you want it.  I will gladly help with testing and
whatever else you need.
