Re: differences between MH and nmh

[BTW, the FAQ should be updated to reflect that nmh has renamed mtstailor
to mts.conf.]

  Is this true?  Richard, perhaps you should take a quick ;-) look at
  the MH FAQ and let me know if there are any more differences like
  this that I should note.

Yep, mtstailor was changed to mts.conf.  Also the mhn configuration file
is now called mhn.defaults (I don't remember the name for MH anymore).

The current differences between MH and nmh are listed in the DIFFERENCES
file (available at the web and ftp site).  This week, I'll look through
the MH FAQ and check for significant differences that should be pointed
out.

As times goes by, the differences between MH and nmh will probably
grow.  There is just too much historical junk in MH (much of which I have
stripped out of the prerelease of the next version).

For example, in the next version of nmh, the switch -inplace will be
the default for anno, comp, etc...

I'll probably have another prerelease of 0.18 later this week.
