                             nmh - Message Handling System

     Welcome to the home of nmh, on savannah.nongnu.org.

     The latest stable release of nmh is nmh 1.8. You can [1]download it from
     savannah.

     We are pleased to announce the release of nmh 1.8 on 18 February 2023.

     Nmh 1.8 includes a large number of enhancements and bug fixes. The NEWS file
     included in the distribution contains greater details, but the highlights are:
     * Support for Content-MD5 header fields, MIME content cache functionality, and
       the message/partial MIME type have been removed.
     * Gmail OAuth2/XOAUTH support for desktop applications has been effectively
       dropped, so nmh no longer supports it. nmh support for Gmail API access is
       experimental, please post to [2]nmh-workers@nongnu.org if you'd like to help
       with test and development.
     * repl(1) -convertargs now allows editing of the composition draft between
       translation and any encoding of text content. Because encoding can wrap long
       lines, the use of a paragraph formatter has been removed from mhn.defaults.

     Please report problems in the bug tracker on savannah, or on the
     [3]nmh-workers mailing list. Thanks!

     nmh (new MH) is a powerful electronic mail handling system. It was originally
     based on version 6.8.3 of the MH message system developed by the RAND
     Corporation and the University of California. It is intended to be a (mostly)
     compatible drop-in replacement for MH.
     nmh consists of a collection of fairly simple single-purpose programs to send,
     receive, save, retrieve, and manipulate e-mail messages. Since nmh is a suite
     rather than a single monolithic program, you may freely intersperse nmh
     commands with other commands at your shell prompt, or write custom scripts
     which use these commands in flexible ways.
     NOTE: All versions of nmh prior to 1.0.3 (as well as MH) contained a
     vulnerability where incoming mail messages with carefully designed MIME
     headers could cause the mhshow command to execute arbitrary shell code. Though
     the authors of nmh are not aware of any exploits of this hole, MH users and
     users of older versions of nmh are strongly encouraged to upgrade to the
     current version.
