Same problem when I've saved a message in a file that isn't in an MH
folder.  For instance, I use inferior ;-) MUAs (like mush) sometimes.
I'll save a message to a file like /tmp/msg.  But if I use "comp" and:
        #message/rfc822 /tmp/msg
mhn tells me to use #forw instead.  Grrr.  So I use #text/plain, then
"edit mhn", and go in and fix it myself.  IMHO, mhn could be less
protective here.
