This is mh-e, a GNU Emacs interface to the MH mail system.

Emacs comes prepackaged with mh-e; the files in this package may be
more recent however. To ascertain the version of mh-e in your version
of Emacs and to determine whether it is necessary to install these
files, run the command "M-x mh-version" within Emacs. If this package
contains a more recent version of mh-e, read on.

This version of mh-e will appear in GNU Emacs 21.2.


* INSTALL

** Extract the tarball.

If you don't have GNU tar, use gzip to uncompress the tarball and drop
the `z' option.

	tar xzf mh-e-6.1.tgz

** Place these files in your load path.

You may simply place the files in a directory that is already in your
load path, or you could add something like the following to your
.emacs:

	(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/mh-e-6.1"))

** Read the commentary at the top of mh-e.el.

** Read the release notes in MH-E-NEWS.

This is particularly important if you're already using mh-e and the
major version number has changed. We don't bump major version numbers
in mh-e for marketing reasons; it always means incompatible
improvements were made.


* ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

** Documentation

Documentation comes in the form of a manual which comes in the
following forms:

*** info

The info pages can be found by running the following command within
Emacs:

	C-h i m mh-e RET

*** HTML

An online version of the documentation is available here:

	http://www.ics.uci.edu/~mh/book/mh-e/
