I am having trouble understanding the question.
I read your mail with the 'show' command, which is part of 'nmh'. I
have defined my 'showproc' to be 'less', since I prefer that to the
default. I am using the 'repl' command to reply. It invokes the
'vi' editor.
Yes, I sometimes use 'exmh' for an X-windows interface. But plain
nmh would seem to already provide what you want.
