install-mh(8) System Manager's Manual install-mh(8) NAME install-mh - initialize the MH environment SYNOPSIS /usr/lib/mh/install-mh [ -auto ] DESCRIPTION When a user runs any MH program for the first time, the program invokes install-mh (with the -auto switch) to query the user for the initial MH environment. The user does not invoke this program directly. The pro- gram prompts for the name of the directory to be designated as the user's Mail directory. If this directory does not exist, install-mh asks if it should be created. Normally, this directory should be under the user's home directory, and has the default name of Mail. After in- stall-mh has written the initial .mh_profile for the user, control re- turns to the original MH program. As with all MH commands, install-mh first consults the $HOME environ- ment variable to determine the user's home directory. If $HOME is not set, then the /etc/passwd file is consulted. If the -auto option is used, the current folder is changed to +inbox. PROFILE COMPONENTS tab(+); l l. Path:+To set the user's MH directory FILES $HOME/.mh_profile User profile.
