[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider
[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,
[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example.
I have nothing against adding trim-string, but it needs
to take an argument saying what to trim, if it is to be general
enough to work with all the uses of split-string.
Also,
(split-string recipients "," nil "[ \t\n]*")
is cleaner than
(split-string (trim-string recipients "[ \t\n]*") "[ \t\n]*,[ \t\n]*")
