Hi there,
I just wanted to use the new beta 2 verion of vm, however something
seems to be broken.
I'm on Linux 2.6.28-17-generic #58-Ubuntu x86_64 GNU/Linux
and using XEmacs 21.4 (patch 22)

I did

./configure --with-emacs=xemacs
make
make install

this went ok. Then I start vm and hit to compose a message I get:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument char-or-string-p nil)
  vm-mail-internal(nil nil nil)
  #<compiled-function (&optional to subject) "...(36)" [subject to vm-mail-buffer vm-session-initialization vm-check-for-killed-folder bufferp buffer-name vm-check-for-killed-summary vm-mail-internal nil run-hooks vm-mail-hook vm-mail-mode-hook] 4 ("/usr/local/lib/xemacs/site-packages/lisp/vm/vm.elc" . 20308) nil>()
  call-interactively(vm-mail)

Any ideas how to solve this problem?

The call to vm-mail-internal is correct, and nothing of substance has 
changed inside this function.  Can you try loading the uncompiled 
library vm-reply.el and see what the error backtrace looks like?

Cheers,
Uday
