Thanks for the reply and information.
I am not tied to any particular version.
- I went to Emacs 24 because I saw documentation that said it had
some built-in SSL support.
- I had been using VM 8.1.1 for quite some time and went to 8.1.2
thinking it would be better to get to the latest for trying
this effort.
- I rather not use stunnel if Emacs/VM can do the job, but if
they can't, they can't.
I have now loaded vm-8.2.0b from the launchpad site to which you
pointed. I get different errors when attempting to get mail in a VM
summary buffer:
Checking for new mail...
vm-pop-parse-spec-to-list: Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size
and other errors when sending:
Sending...

I expect the issues are straightforward. If someone has this working
or can offer pointers, please do.

stunnel version 4.56 (from stunnel.org)
VM 8.1.2 was not made for Emacs 24 and so it won't know about Emacs 24
features. You can get the latest beta-release from
http://launchpad.net/vm.
If you want to stick to 8.1.2, you will need to use stunnel. Check the old
posts on stunnel in the gnu.emacs.vm.info archive:
