I have had trouble with the following for a long time, now including VM
5.32. My Unix mailbox is in mmdf format. I have read and expunged all
the mail in my VM inbox, so the inbox file has been deleted. I get new
Unix mail and try to get it with the VM "g" command. I get the inbox
displayed with the mmdf "^A^A^A^A" separators, and VM says there are no
messages, and I got the following traceback:
Signalling: (wrong-type-argument arrayp nil)
aref(nil 0)
(aref ...computing arguments...)
(or ...)
vm-vheaders-of(nil)
(narrow-to-region ...computing arguments...)

vm-preview-current-message()
(let ...)
(let ...)
vm(nil nil)
* call-interactively(vm)
execute-extended-command(nil)
* call-interactively(execute-extended-command)
If I quit out of VM ("q" command) and then restart it (ESC-x vm),
everything is fine (quitting wrote out the inbox in mmdf format, so when
vm restarted there was an inbox in a format it recognized).
