Hello to all

Can anybody help me to solve a problem with vm? I'm fairly new to this stuff.

I try to set up vm as my Email reader. But couldn't get it to work yet. I 
fetch my Emails from a POP-Server with fetchmail and put it into several 
spool files in my home folder via procmail. 

I told vm to get the mails from the spool files. vm never puts the mails into 
its primary inbox when I hit "g", but always into the associated crash files. 
Moreover it complains about not recognizing the type of my crash folders.

I think something with my setup is principially wrong.

Here are my .procmail and .vm files

#.procmail
SHELL=/bin/bash
PROCMAILDIR=$HOME/.Procmail
LOGFILE=$PROCMAILDIR/log
VERBOSE=yes
LOGABSTRACT=all
MAILDIR=$HOME/.Mail/SPOOLS
