How would you go about using a VBit to pocket out a letter only in the confines of the letter shape or to cut out a star shape so the points of the star are narrower and shallower than the middle.

That is probably not possible at this time. I think that would be a v-carve procedure which millmage is not capable of yet.
Correct - V-Carve is not yet available. But it’s in the works.
It seems the issue might be due to the cutter having too large a diameter and a wide angle.
Try switching to a smaller diameter cutter with a more acute angle—here’s a sample using those adjustments.
HTH.
You could still use that 90º V-bit—just be sure to set a shallower depth of cut.
I’ve included a few screenshots to help illustrate the point.

This is basically the same result. I was hoping for a V-carve result which they said is not a Millmage function…yet.
