I know - feature requests are easy to make but hopefully these will be helpful:
* Google-style contact autocompletion: typing a contact's name, or
part thereof, should provide autocomplete suggestions which can be
chosen before or after composing the message body.
* Undo button: since I'm still learning the keyboard commands (and, I
think, because they're still in flux) an undo button would be useful
so I can un-tag an email mistakenly tagged as spam.

Try pressing tab when you type a contact. It should give you options
from your contacts list. The only oddness is that now sup doesnt
auto-add contacts that have no name (ie only an addresS) some contacts
wont work. So if you want a contact to be auto-completable you may
need to add it manually with a name/alias.

Regarding autocomplete, I have problems when autocompleting contacts whose name is something like
"Doe, John". Maybe somebody is seeing similar issues?
The name is autocompleted correctly, but the email is sent to two addresses:
doe at smtphost (which doesn't arrive) and to john.doe at ... (which arrives
correctly). Has anyone seen something similar?

I think this should be fixed in SVN. (By, of course, writing my own
55-line state machine to parse sequences of email addresses. Sigh.)
The downside is that names with commas like "Doe, John" now require
double-quotes in order to complete.

As Marcus points out, Sup has tab completion. Only does prefix matches,
but it's the same basic functionality.

Yes, this has been on the todo list for quite some time. One day!
Currently you can "undo everything since I last pressed the $ key" by
hitting @.
