Package: vm Version: 7.19-2 Severity: normal Hi Manoj,
I wish I had a better handle on why/how this happens. I used to read mail in vm under xemacs (which worked for years even though you always insisted it wasn't supported) but then switched to mutt as my folders got to big. About maybe two months ago, I switched back to vm, but as it failed to work under XEmacs, switched over to GNU Emacs for mail. It is entirely possible that some part of the old, grown, convoluted paramters and setting in ~/.emacs* and friends have something to do with this bug -- but I am not sure how would I could tell or find out. I don't really read or program elisp, I merely adapt the configuration based on docs. Anyway, to cut a long story short, about once a week vm takes emacs down hard. This typically happens when a new mail folder is read. Have you ever come across a bug report like this, and is there something I could do ... while I cannot actively trigger the bug. I could enable logging. I tend to remove the (massive) core file. This is on always current testing, and I am mostly filing this bug to give us a chance to address this before the release. If you find the bug report too intagible and feel you need to close it outright, I would not be too shocked -- though obviously not please either. As I said, I wish I had more pointers. Lastly, I'd really appreciate it if you change past practices and enable use of vm under xemacs.
