Hi I have installed vmail, but when trying to open it shows

$ vmail
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': iconv will be deprecated in the future, use String#encode instead.
Starting vmail 2.5.2 
Checking vmail.db version... OK
Setting VMAIL_BROWSER to 'gnome-open'
Using config file: .vmailrc
No contacts file found for auto-completion. See help for how to generate it.

What could be wrong?

I got nearly the same error. The solution for me was to put "quotes" in my .vmailrc file.

Good luck, I hope that helps you!
