I have tried it with your settings and reproduced the error.  You have set
`vm-enable-external-messages' to t.  You should set it to '(imap).

Can I please urge everybody to try VM with default settings in order to
track down problems with your settings?  

I have announced previously a mechanism whereby you can put all your option
settings into a separate .vm.preferences file and block it from loading
initially.  That way, you can easily test out and debug your settings.

This is entirely similar to how you test out problems with your .emacs files
by doing emacs -q.
