You have more patience than me :-) Just a guess, I wonder if "set +u" would have silenced those messages. I removed bash-completion (all of it, not just for nmh) from my system (Fedora 16) because it disabled some completions that I use frequently. I don't think it's very useful for nmh, anyway, because nmh options can be abbreviated. It should complete folder names, but didn't for me.
