I second Bob's words.
I've been using [n]mh since 1987, and actually still have some
emails from that time frame!
My contributions have been limited to one change (circa 1995) to
support SCO 5 Openserver, but have been a faithful user and very
glad to have made the digital aquaintence of Norm and others on this
list.

Delurking to echo the sentiments posted by others.
I've been using (N)MH since 1991, and it has been my great
pleasure to have done so. I've installed it on every system I've
acquired sys-admin authority for.
I hope to use it for as long as I'm emailing, because I've yet to
find any other mailer nearly as useful. The notion of making
each message its own file, and thus leveraging all the Unix file
tools, was brilliant, and nothing else has come close. There've
been many instances where I did something through MH, thought
about what I'd have to go through with other mailers, and was
*very* grateful for MH!
Thank you Norman. Thank you so very much!

succession, and before I had a chance to thank them for all they had done for
me and meant to me.
So, before I leave, I want to thank all who have participated in MH, NMH, and
their off shoots, as designers, implementers, users and critics for their
part
in what I regard as the signal accomplishment of my career -- a career not
without other accomplishments, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Shapiro.
Thank you all so much.
