Should the addition mention that? Maybe in a paragraph to precede the one you wrote, mentioning: mhn.defaults is read first, then the user's profile and any additional profiles specified by the environment variables listed in the mh-profile(5) man page. The last value read for any entry is the one that is used. > so i'd like to apply this (or a similar) patch to all of the > appropriate man pages (i.e., mhbuild, mhshow, mhstore, mhn, mhfixmsg), > but obviously only if people think the behavior is intentional. I believe that it's intentional and I think it's a good idea to document it. Instead of duplicating it in 5 places, maybe just put it in the mh-profile page?
