For a long time now I've really wanted to be able to use vim to edit text areas in my browser (opera).

I've noticed a bunch of plugins for firefox but even they only work with moderate degrees of success, and I certainly hadn't come across anything for Opera ... until now!

Recently I switched to mutt (after hearing Nigel and Penny talk about it a whole lot).

I'm using a combination of mutt, offlineimap, vim (for actually editing the emails), and up until now extreme annoyance at contact management/insertion.
