So to troubleshoot, one should compare the output of that command on both hosts (or on one host before/after you get the undesired behavior). -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers

Leonardo pointed you to the right location, but one additional note: I've seen this when I've had two versions of nmh (one old, one new) writing to the context (the one old clears out the Version string). --Ken -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers

This can be disabled by adding a `Welcome: disable' entry in the nmh profile. (But, unfortunately no idea why that happens every time... Maybe some program/script removes the `Version:' line in the context every login?) -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
