It's not happening now.

Thanks, I rebuilt VM and everything works now.  

One small point, I'd like a change of message order
(vm-move-message-backward) to mark the folder as modified so that a
vm-save-folder will actually save even if nothing else changes.  An
admitidly quick look at vm-group.el didn't show a variable to set to get
this behavior.  Is there one?
