This chapter is about the specific programs that compose mail -- like
comp and repl.
The chapter starts with a step-by-step explanation of how mail messages
are created.
There's also information that applies to all the mail-composition
programs -- how to use mail aliases, what you can do at the
What now? prompt, and so on.
The Section Composing and Sending MIME Messages
explains how to make MIME messages; there are other
MIME tidbits spread through the chapter, too.
If you want to use a new text editor or programs
like a spelling or diction checker,
the Section What now? -- and the whatnow Program
shows you how.
The Section MH Aliases
describes a way to save time, to
shorten long addresses, and to give an easy-to-remember name to a group
of addresses.
MH gives you a lot of flexibility with draft messages, especially if you
make a draft folder.
The chapter ends with tips about individual commands like repl -- for
example, how to include the original message in your reply...and how to mail files.
