[VM] Installing View Mail on Aquamacs?

[Marius Hofert]

Dear all,

I work with Aquamacs 3.x (latest nightly build) on Mac OS X 10.7.2. I would 
like to use View Mail to read and send emails from Aquamacs. I did the 
following:
(1) I downloaded the View Mail source code vm-8.2.0a.tgz from 
https://launchpad.net/vm.
(2) I installed it following the standard procedure (configure, make, make 
install). 
(3) I put in the following in ~/Library/Preferences/Aquamacs 
Emacs/Preferences.el:
(setq vm-imap-account-alist
           '(
             ("imap-ssl:mail.ethz.ch:993:*:login:<mylogin>:*" "ethz")
             ("imap-ssl:imap.googlemail.com:993:*:login:<address@hidden>:*" 
"gmail")
             )
     )
(setq vm-primary-inbox "imap-ssl:mail.ethz.ch:993:*:login:<mylogin>:*" "ethz")
(setq vm-crash-box "~/email/inbox.crash.mbox")
(setq vm-spool-files `((,vm-primary-inbox
                            "/var/mail/me"
                            ,vm-crash-box)))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.mbox$" . vm-mode))
(setq mail-user-agent 'vm-user-agent)

On starting Aquamacs, I obtain: 
An error has occurred while loading `~/Library/Preferences/Aquamacs 
Emacs/Preferences.el (or .elc)':
Wrong type argument: symbolp, ethz

Needless to say, it is not working. I can't even use M-x vm (=> [no match]). 
I'm not sure if the installation worked correctly (although I haven't found 
errors), I haven't found anything on Aquamacs & View Mail except these post(s):
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/cgi-bin/namazu.cgi?query=Aquamacs&submit=Search%21&idxname=viewmail-info&max=20&result=normal&sort=score

Has anyone tried this installation before? Did I miss anything above? (I mainly 
followed the View Mail wiki here but I'm a total newbie to Aquamacs + View Mail 
so there is some chance I did something wrong).

Cheers,

Marius
