Fellow vm- ers,

I am having an INTERMITTENT but RECURRING problem on vm5.26,
having to do with vm-get-new-mail.  Actually, I first saw this
problem on vm5.21.  I reported the bug, but after playing around
with my emacs environment, it "went away", and I reported such
to Kyle.  Well it didn't go away; and I've seen it in all
the successive versions up to 5.26; it still hits me about three
times a week.   I never saw it on vm4.41.
I thought it might be some ancillary code I had
(ange-ftp, etc.), but after removing that it still occurs.

My environment:
 Sun386i with SunOS4.0.2
 Emacs 18.55.5
 vm5.21 to vm5.26
 running csh with set mail = (10 /usr/spool/mail/ascott)
       and     setenv mail = /usr/spool/mail/ascott   
       
Problem Description:

After being in vm for awhile, my xbiff flag goes up, and I hit g 
(vm-get-new-mail), and all I get is the "No new mail" message.  I have
to q (quit) and then M-x vm to see the message.
 
 
I know this is a vague description.  Do you have any suggestions
on how to further narrow down the problem?

Thanks,
Andy Scott
