In GNU Emacs 19.27.1 (sparc-sun-solaris2.3, X toolkit) of Sat Sep 17 1994 on gemini

Try this:

C-x C-f /usr/local/lib/emacs/19.12345/ RET
(Emacs complains that dir does not exist, and to create it using M-x mkdir)

M-x vm-mail RET
(fill-in appropriately)

C-c C-c 

(An error is reported: mail is not sent because CWD could not be set;
i.e. the dir does not exist))

BTW, I have a bit of lisp-code which prompts to verify whether I
really wnat to send the mail; but I don't think it will affect this.

I mailed Kyle about this but he said it was an emacs-bug.
