There's David's context-version check, the FAQ, and this mailing-list's page and appended signature. I've been thinking a bit more about this. A folder of test emails that can be tested by a installed command available to the user. That can either use what it thinks is a good modern configuration so the user can see what's possible in theory, or the user's configuration so they can test their set up on a variety of emails. The former could be built on the fly based on what commands are installed, e.g. lynx(1) v. links(1). -- Cheers, Ralph. -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
