This is not something I had experienced with nmh 0.27, so I'm guessing it
has something to do with splitting mhn into mhshow et al. I thought about
how this might possibly happen briefly after sending the message, and my
guess is that mhshow is invoked rather than showproc or some such in this
case to display the temporary file that mhshow creates. This is of course
without looking at *any* of the nmh sources or attempting a debug. I can't
unfortunately devote that much time to this right now.
Thanks for the response though...
