Thanks!

It's nice to know there are a few still out there.

I've been using MH since 1997 and Unix since 1989, my first taste was BSD on a VAX 11/750.  (I'm NOT OLD!!!.  LOL)  People tell me all about the cool integrated development environments, but the terminal has always been my favorite IDE.

Hi doug,

> There are 26 members on Savannah.  Is that all of us that are left?

The number of subscribers to the mailing lists may be a better
representation.

nmh-announce has ~60.  It goes down whenever there's a
flurry of announcements due to domains having expired, accounts being
deleted, or, quite often, a misconfigured SMTP server.

nmh-workers has ~170.

Debian's statistics suggest 60 use package nmh regularly out of those
taking part in the poll.  https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=nmh
