I've thought about the nmh target audience ... I guess my thinking is the
ideal nmh user be programmers who want a flexible MUA that can make use of
many of the features of the Unix command line.

Have your ambitions changed in the intervening six months? Specifically, do
you believe that nmh is now a "flexible MUA" for a user who does not know MIME
and does not have access to somebody who knows both nmh and MIME. Or that such
a MUA is even possible, in 2014?

I'd still like a user be able to walk up to a nmh installation and the basic
commands be useful without any configuration, though.

But is such a user better off wih nmh or with some GUI based MUA?
