Yes, you're right. Maybe you can keep Emacs running on a
locked terminal during the weekend and set vm-auto-get-new-mail to a
numerical value.
[from C-h v vm-auto-get-new-mail]
Documentation:
*Non-nil value causes VM to automatically move mail from spool files
to a mail folder when the folder is first visited. Nil means
you must always use vm-get-new-mail to pull in newly arrived messages.
If the value is a number, then it specifies how often (in
seconds) VM should check for new mail and try to retrieve it.
This is done asynchronously and may occur while you are editing
other files. It should not disturb your editing, except perhaps
for a pause while the work is being done. The `itimer' package
must be installed for this to work. Otherwise a numeric value is
the same as a value of t.
Klaus.
