What command are you using which fails, e.g. show, mhshow.  That would
be the starting point for seeing when it leads to mhl being run.

If you introduce a syntax error into the mhl.format you think is being
used, does mhl grumble?

    $ /usr/lib/nmh/mhl -form /etc/passwd -nomoreproc
    mhl: format file syntax error: root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
    $
