If you're a long-time MH user, I admit that I am surprised you never set
anything in your profile; it seems like the default was prompter for a
long time (although, like I said earlier, that depends on your specific
site configuration; if people used the default configuration shipped in
MH 6.8 you ended up with vi).  I know I've been using Editor: vi in
my .mh_profile for approximately forever.

EDITOR/VISUAL support is a recent nmh thing.
