Thanks.  But after a few days' testing, I'm having second thoughts: it is
inconvenient that the buffers of messages that you have closed and perhaps
even deleted stay around.  At the very least, commands like v
(wl-summary-toggle-disp-msg) or q (wl-summary-exit) in the summary buffer
and q (mime-preview-quit) in message buffers should also remove the message
buffer from the buffer list.  This was obviously no problem when the buffers
were hidden; but now I end up with a large number of message buffers that I
have already closed.

Is there a simpler way to tackle this problem?
