Hi Eli, any update on this? Did you manage to get VM working again? If you can copy the crash files away, and examine them in Emacs as well as VM, there might be some clues in them as to what might be going wrong. As a general rule, even if some incoming mail goes to crash box, it should get processed if you run vm-get-new-mail again. There should be no need to switch to a different version of VM to process the crash box. Please let me know if you are able to get the crash box messages in this way in the devo version.

Status in View Mail (aka VM) for Emacs: In Progress Status in VM (View Mail) for Emacs: In Progress Bug description: affects viewmail importance critical Hi, I'm having some problems using emacs 23 from CVS, and VM 591 from the bzr repo. First, when collecting messages from my work's IMAP server, they invariably end up in my mail.crash file, then I have to `vm-get-new- mail' again to recover the messages. Note collecting from a another pop mailbox works fine. from my *Messages* buffer: Checking for new mail for /home/eschulte/mail/mitre... Recovering messages from ~/mail/mitre.crash... Added to /home/eschulte/mail/mitre Recovering messages from ~/mail/mitre.crash... done Second, VM continually freezes my emacs, at first I thought this was because it was collecting mail, so I set `vm-auto-get-new-mail' to nil, but still VM will burn my CPU and freeze my emacs for 5-20 seconds at a time. Does anyone have any advice for what may be going wrong, or how I can generate a more helpful error report?
