Absolutely. 4 way interlinked iron chain links making a shirt easily deflects most edged or pointed weapons with only minor bruising. You usually need to wear good leather armor under the chainmail to reduce the bruising. It is just very tedious and expensive to have a blacksmith make quality small but strong link chainmail for you. But chainmail is less expensive than full plate armor.
However chainmail will not deflect crossbow bolts or bullets. (neither will plate)
Naomirox123 says: Eccles-Jordan Trigger maybe they meant chain-mail as in email!
In this case it does not work! It's like a email virus that tells if you dont do "this or that" you'll die or something bad will happen. So just ignore it, nothing bad can happen!

Because the chain mail is metal, it conducts the heat away from the skin leaving you feeling cold so the vests were there to keep them warm. Also, if you were to take a hard hit onto chain mail on bare skin, the rings would cut into the skin. Sure, not as bad as if the soldier hadn't had the mail, but still an injury. So, padding was needed.
