Hello,
I normally use elm for my emailing needs, but I recently decided to
upgrade to mh and exmh. I installed those packages and their dependencies
on my debian 1.3 system. Everything seemed to install properly and looks
fine but I can't seem to send a message. This is what happens:
To: ken
cc:
Subject: Test number 4
--------
This is a test of the mail system
--ken

What now? send
post: problem initializing server; [BHST] premature end-of-file on socket
send: message not delivered to anyone
What now? quit
whatnow: draft left on /home/ken/Mail/drafts/4

leisure:~> send -verbose -watch
Use "/home/ken/Mail/drafts/4"? y

I normally use elm on top of smail and this works great. The man page
indicates that mh uses the installed mail transport system (smail), but it
apparently uses it differntly than elm does.
Here are the versions of the installed packages:
leisure:~/Mail> dpkg -l | grep smail
ii smail 3.2-3 Electronic mail transport system.
leisure:~/Mail> dpkg -l | grep mh
ii exmh 1.6.9-4 An X user interface for MH mail.
ii mh 6.8.4-13 A set of electronic mail handling
programs.
ii mh-papers 6.8.3-1 The MH papers: A set of document
on/about MH
leisure:~/Mail>
BTW, I am trying to read the mh-papers to see if this might shed some light.
I'm currently having a little trouble compiling the documentation using teTex
;-)
Any suggestions?
