Problem with vm on exit

[glen]

I am running vm 8.0.12 on emacs 23.1.1 compiled for 64bit OpenSuse
11.1

When I exit vm ('q') or exit emacs (C-c C-w) is get from vm:
"Symbol's function definition is void: vm-sort-compare-xxxxxx"

I have to leave emacs without saving, then when I restart emacs, I
have to recover the VMAIL file, then exit emac, then restart, the
mailbox is then up-to-date.

Any suggestions?

thanks,
Glens

This suggests that the vm-sort library hasn't been loaded. Try
evaluating (featurep 'vm-sort) immediately after the error message, to
see if the library has been loaded or not. If not, rebuilding vm might
cure the problem. If the library is there and you still get an error
message, then there is something deeper going on.
