This is wonderful, Norm!! Thanks so much for posting this! I definitely want to add this to the docs directory once we have the new CVS archive up and working. nmh has got to be one of a very tiny number of open source packages whose codebase has remained active for so many years, so historical documents like this are very valuable, IMHO. When Richard started nmh he decided to throw out almost all the historical info, but I feel this is a mistake. I've already added back the MH ChangeLogs, since those were the most important lost files, but I when I get a chance I want to look through the other informational files in the MH distribution to check for other stuff worth saving. -- Dan Harkless [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://harkless.org/dan/
