VIM DEFINITION (continued): … VIM (Vendor Independent Messaging) is an application program interface (API) that facilitates the exchange of e-mail and attachments between programs from different vendors.

Vim, a similarly-named but unrelated application, is an enhanced version of the vi text editor distributed with UNIX systems.
