Description-en: Emacs interface to the MH mail system
MH-E offers all the functionality of MH, the visual orientation and
simplicity of use of a GUI, and full integration with Emacs and
XEmacs, including thorough configuration and online help.
.
MH-E allows one to read and process mail very quickly: many commands
are single characters; completion and smart defaults are used for
folder names and aliases. With MH-E you compose outgoing messages in
Emacs. This is a big plus for Emacs users, but even non-Emacs users
have been known to use MH-E after only learning the most basic cursor
motion commands.
.
Additional features include:
.
- attractive text rendering with font lock
- composition and display of MIME body parts
- display of images and HTML within the Emacs frame
- folder browsing with speedbar
- threading
- ticking messages
- lightning-fast full-text indexed searches of all of your email
- virtual folders to view ticked and unseen messages, search results
- multiple personalities
- signing and encrypting
- spam filter interaction
- XFace, Face, X-Image-URL and picon header field support
.
MH is Rand's Mail Handler, whose functionality is available in MH,
nmh and GNU mailutils.
.
This might be the same version as in the emacs23 package, but
documentation is included. It also includes contributed files that are not
distributed with GNU Emacs:
.
mh-frame.el - Open MH-E in a separate frame.
mh-comp-frame.el - Message composition in a separate frame.
