It turns out that MHonArc was remarkable easy to port to VMS, thanks to the
excellent job Earl has done in the first place.
A few minor modifications however were needed:
2. VMS doesn't like filenames with 2 dots, like ".mhonarc.db".
Change in lib/mhinit.pl:
## check for VMS
$VMS = ($^O=~/vms/i);
This check should be osinit.pl. It should be evaled to avoid version
problems with Perl.
$DBFILE = $ENV{'M2H_DBFILE'} || (($MSDOS|$VMS) ? "mhonarc.db":
Should use "||" instead of "|". "|" is a bitwise or.
Changes will be part of the next (bug-fix) release.
