You shouldn't need both visual-line-mode and filling if everything is
working right.  (In fact, filling makes the visual-line-mode redundant
because visual-line-mode is meant for paragraphs without line breaks.)
I think you are getting some messages that are not getting filled and,
therefore, visual-line-mode is catching them.

I actually found an instance of vm-fill-paragraphs-containing-long-lines disabled in vm-show-current-message.  There is a comment there that says:
  ;; FIXME this probably cause folder corruption by filling the folder instead
  ;; of the presentation copy  ...
Hmm.. trouble.  This will take a while to get fixed.  Meanwhile, you have the visual-line-mode.  Enjoy!
