Here’s my .vm, slightly altered to de-identify myself and my workplace:

--- start of .vm ---

(setq vm-imap-account-alist
("imap-ssl:owa.myschool.edu:993:*:login:***@myschool.edu:*"
"Work IMAP")
)
)
(setq vm-primary-inbox
"imap-ssl:owa.myschool.edu:993:inbox:login:***@myschool.edu:*")
(setq vm-reply-subject-prefix "Re: ")
(setq vm-stunnel-program "c:/cygwin/bin/stunnel.exe")


; Stylistic:
(setq vm-preview-lines t) ; Show as much of message as possible

; Directories
(setq vm-folders-summary-directories '("c:/Mail/"))
(setq vm-mime-all-attachments-directory "c:/detached/")
(setq vm-mime-attachment-save-directory "c:/detached/")
(setq vm-temp-file-directory "c:/temp/")
(setq vm-folder-directory "c:/Mail/")
(setq vm-imap-folder-cache-directory "c:/temp/")

; Keys

(define-key vm-mail-mode-map "\C-c\C-a" 'mail-abbrev-insert-alias)

(setq vm-mime-text/html-handler nil) ; disable lynx til it's useful
))

--- end of .vm ---

Right now I’m baffled. I would be grateful for any suggestions.
