The new VM 5.41 doesn't work correctly with bbdb's mail-abbrevs.el in emacs
v18, because the latter checks for the current mail map being
mail-mode-map. Now VM uses its own vm-mail-mode map.
The following lines in the mail-abbrevs code give the problem:
; (or (and mail-mode-map (eq (current-local-map) mail-mode-map))
; (error "shut 'er down clancy, she's suckin' mud"))
(without the comment, that is).
I commented these out and the thing seems to work again, although I have my
suspicions. The problem might be that mail-mode-map is nconced to
vm-mail-mode-map and is changed by bbdb.
