I don't know about these two different versions John is referring to.
The support for VMS was removed in Emacs 23. There are sources which
claim to be version 21.2, which I didn't find in any source repository.
These sources are on the VMS freeware CD V8.0. They should build and
work on Alpha. In the same directory there are source code changes for
that version which make it build and run on I64. In
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.os.vms/DGISjZP4fUs%5B151-175%5D
there is a pointer to changes for VAX.

Then there is microemacs (uemacs or µemacs) which should build and run
on VMS. I haven't tried it for a long time. I don't know what the
current version is. There was at least the popular version 3.12 for
which you can find executables for VAX and Alpha. It's not obvious to me
whether microemacs is still maintained.

Then there is jed, which comes with a emacs and EDT mode
(http://www.jedsoft.org/jed/). Current version is 0.99-19 It should
build on Alpha and I64. It is still maintained. There are executables of
an older version (0.99-17) on the VMS freeware CD V7.0 (the version on
V8.0 is even older).
