Binary package “mmh” in ubuntu oracular
set of electronic mail handling programs
This is the mmh mail user agent (reader/sender), a command-line based mail
reader that is powerful and extensible. mmh is an excellent choice for
people who receive and process a lot of mail.
.
Unlike most mail user agents, mmh is not a single program, rather it is a
set of programs that are run from the shell. This allows the user to
utilize the full power of the Unix shell in coordination with mmh.
.
Mmh is a modified version of the electronic mail handling system nmh.
Nmh (new MH) itself was originally based on the package MH-6.8.3, and
was intended to be a (mostly) compatible drop-in replacement for MH.
In contrast, mmh is not intended to be a drop-in replacement for nmh,
rather mmh breaks compatibility to nmh in order to modernize and
simplify it.
