+# Makefile variables of interest:
+#
+# NMH_MTS - pass an MTS specification through to nmh's configure
+# script's "--with-mts" option. Do a "make extract" and check
+# the NMH distribution's "INSTALL" file for more info.
+# Currently, the valid choices are
+# "smtp" - [the default] Open a connection to the SMTP port on
+# the configured server, default - localhost. The server would
+# be specified in the etc/nmh/mts.conf file after installation.
+# This requires access to a SMTP daemon on the localhost or the
+# specified server system.
+# "sendmail" - Fork a copy of sendmail to handle the message. This
+# will have different behavior than "smtp" depending on your
+# local MTA and its configuration. For example, some of the
+# rewriting facilities of "qmail-inject", if you are using qmail,
+# may be available this way, but not via NMH_MTS=smtp.
+#
+# NMH_EDITOR - pass an EDITOR specification through to nmh's configure
+# script's '--with-editor' option.
+#
+# NMH_PAGER - pass an PAGER specification through to nmh's configure
+# script's '--with-pager' option.

- ${PKG_PREFIX}/etc/nmh/mts.conf
+ ${PKG_PREFIX}/etc/nmh/mhn.defaults - For example, you may
