This release of MH is called "MH.5". Here are the details: - MH is in the public-domain - MH runs on a number of versions of UNIX (4.xBSD, v7, xenix) [sorry, no sys{3,5} support yet.] - MH runs on top of a number of mail transport systems (MMDF-{I,II}, SendMail, stand-alone (with UUCP support)) For those of you familiar with the MH distributed with 4.2BSD, MH.5 is an extremely enhanced version. The differences are too numerous too mention. Although MH is not "supported" per se, it does have a bug-reporting address, Bug-MH@UCI. Bug reports (and fixes) are welcome, by the way. There are also two Internet discussion groups, MH-Users@UCI and MH-Workers@UCI (somewhat analagous in charter to Info-UNIX and UNIX-Wizards). There are two ways to get a distribution: 1. If you can FTP to the ARPAnet, use anonymous FTP to udel-huey [10.2.0.96] and retrieve the file ~ftp/portal/mh.5-tar. This is a tar image (2.07MB). 2. You can send $50 to the address below. This covers the cost of a magtape, handling, and shipping. In addition, you'll get a laser-printed hard-copy of the MH documentation. The documentation includes installation guide, MH tutorial, MH user's manual, changes document (mh.5->mh.5), and BBoards manual. If you go with option two, be sure to include your USPS address with your check. Checks should be made payable to Regents of the University of California It's also a good idea (though not mandatory) to send a computer mail message to "Bug-MH@UCI" when you send your check via USPS to ensure minimal turn-around time. The distribution address is: Support Group Attn: MH distribution Department of Information and Computer Science University of California, Irvine Irvine, CA 92717 714/865-6852 Sadly, if you just want the hard-copies of the documentation, you still have to pay the $50.00. The tar image has the documentation source (the manual is in roff format, but the rest are in TeX format). /mtr ps: appologies for sending this to several lists.
