It's time, I think, to remove vmh.c.

No objection.

The MH book only mentions vmh in a couple of places. In one place, it
says:

    This book doesn't cover the MH BBoards (Bulletin Boards) programs.
    They're quite useful, especially if your site reads bulletin boards
    and/or digests that are sent in mail messages. The commands include
    bbaka, bbc, msh, and vmh.

Wasn't there discussion about removing the BBoard stuff, or am I
confusing that with NNTP support? If the former, then msh and vmh would
go with that, wouldn't it?

As has been mentioned, MH-E is a fine text-based interface to MH. I've
written in the manual that it is designed to be useful for non-Emacs
users as well as hardened Emacs buffs. Indeed, MH-E was my introduction
to Emacs (back in '85).
