That's it, thanks.
the nmh code tries to be "nice and helpful" and work with
the user's preferred shell, so we certainly waste
some cycles with /bin/sh -c whatevershell -c ...actual stuff...
personally i don't think that aiming for the users' preferred
shell is necessary for the not-very-interactive situation
with whatnow, so the $SHELL -c code should indeed be dumped
in the long run.
On second thought, I use bash-isms when looking for and
adding attachments.
I suppose we could only prepend the "$SHELL -c" if $SHELL is
not equivalent to /bin/sh, but I don't think it's worth the
bother.
