nmh for Debian GNU/Linux
------------------------

This package conflicts, replaces, and provides the mh package.

Its configuration files are in /etc/nmh, but it uses /usr/bin/mh/ and
/usr/lib/mh/ (rather than nmh) to avoid confusing exmh and other front
ends.

Please read /usr/share/doc/nmh/DIFFERENCES.gz to find out about what's
different from MH.


repl
----
One of the differences between MH and nmh is the repl command.  The default
reply template no longer contains the Cc: header line.  Instead, there is a
new reply template file `replgroupcomps' which is used when repl is invoked
with the -group switch.

exmh
----
If you use a version of exmh older than 2.0.2-2, please add the following
to your ~/.exmh-defaults file to invoke `repl -group' when you use the
Reply All menu item:

*Mops.reply.m.c_replyall: Msg_Reply -group

scan
----
To see non-ASCII characters in MIME-encoded headers in a scan listing, you
need to set the MM_CHARSET environment variable to your native character
set, and the LC_CTYPE environment variable to a locale using that character
set.  For example:

export MM_CHARSET=ISO-8859-1
export LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO-8859-1

metamail
--------
The mhn program has been configured to use metamail to automatically invoke
the appropriate helper applications for MIME messages.  The metamail
package must be installed to use this functionality.  If you do not wish to
use metamail, please read the manual page mhn(1) and edit the file
/etc/nmh/mhn.defaults.

spost
-----
Normally, nmh sends mail by starting a SMTP session with the local host.
If you want to invoke the MTA directly, include the following line into
your ~/.mh_profile:

postproc: /usr/lib/mh/spost
