+exmh is a TCL/TK based interface to the MH mail system.
+
+IMPORTANT: exmh depends on the TK send facility for its background
+processing. With TK 3.3, send now uses xauthority mechanisms by default,
+unless you compile TK with -DTK_NO_SECURITY. Generally, this means that
+you **MUST** must run xdm to start your Xserver.
+
+FEATURES: As well as providing the usual layer on top of MH commands, exmh
+has a number of other features:
+
+ MIME support! Displays richtext and enriched directly.
+ Color feedback in the scan listing.
+ A colour coded folder display with one label per folder.
+ Smart scan caching. News read/post. koi8-r support.
+ Facesaver bitmap display. Ispell support.
+ Background inc. You can set exmh to run inc periodically.
+ Searching over folder listing and message body.
+ A dialog-box interface to MH pick.
+ A editor editor with emacs-like bindings with MIME support.
+ Glimpse interface. You can index all your mail with glimpse
+ and search for messages by content.
+ User preferences. You can tune exmh through a dialog box.
+ User hacking support. A user library of TCL routines is supported.
