Have your ambitions changed in the intervening six months? Specifically, do
you believe that nmh is now a "flexible MUA" for a user who does not know MIME
and does not have access to somebody who knows both nmh and MIME. Or that such
a MUA is even possible, in 2014?

But is such a user better off wih nmh or with some GUI based MUA?
