I just figured it out.  If I rmm messages at the shell mh gets rid
of them.  However, I often scan my messages and pipe the output 
through less.  If I enter '!rmm n', mh places a '#' sign in front
of n.  Apparently, mh knows that rmm is being invoked in a subshell
or that message n is still being scanned.

Cheers--

Al
