Nothing unless someone chooses to do something. That's what "unmaintained" means. The implication is that you might consider maintaining the port. Have a look at <http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories>http://guide.macports.org/#development
if you think that might be an option.

I'm new to macports, and the idea is really great. However, I need to
install libvmime, and the port available is of a version released in
2005, for which current code examples and documentation is not
available. Could you update it?
When you find a port that needs to be updated, you should file a port update
request in the issue tracker. In this case, such a request has already been
filed:

It would be wonderful if ports where regularly updated.
Many of our ports are regularly updated. Unfortunately libvmime is one of
the ports that do not have a maintainer. Anyone is welcome to volunteer to
become an abandoned port's maintainer, or to attach patches to tickets to
fix them.
