If you must use Emacs 19 for reading mail, you might want to try
Rmail.  IMHO, its not as good as VM, but has similar commands and
shouldn't take more than a half hour to learn.

Note: your mail file will no longer be in Unix mail format, but Rmail
      can now convert a whole BABYL file to Unix mail format.
