>can someone remind me why this is so?  (i.e., the use of -bs mode?)

I am guessing (I do not know for sure) that the original designers didn't
want to have to duplicate code and they figured since the -bs mode would
allow them to reuse the SMTP code, that's what they went with.

Note that I have no objection to anyone fixing this so nmh can be used
with more standalone mailers/proxies/what have you.  Someone just has
to write the code.
