VM is a mail reader that runs inside GNU Emacs and XEmacs. It was written as an alternative to the Emacs RMAIL mail reader. VM is highly configurable and easy to use. It supports POP and IMAP for mail retrieval, understands MIME, and reads both the standard UNIX mailbox format and the BABYL format used by the RMAIL mailer.
VM has been written by Kyle Jones. The last version released by Kyle was 7.19.
The VM project was rebooted in 2024 and is hosted at https://gitlab.com/emacs-vm/vm.If you want to participate, please join on GitLab
