No, if the man pages are lacking, we need to fix that.

If there is real demand for an "nmh User Guide" I'm pretty sure we can cook one 
up.  And have long thought we should.  But it needs to be part of the core 
distribution, and formatted using troff, just like the rest of the 
documentation.

Linking to documentation on web sites is a non-starter.  MH is, by definition, 
an "off line" MUA, and many of us use it that way.  Being denied access to the 
documentation because we don't have a live Internet connection is just silly.
