-what is it?
------------
-nmh (new MH) is an electronic mail handling system. It was
-originally based on the package MH-6.8.3, and is intended to be
-a (mostly) compatible drop-in replacement for MH.
-
-Although development of nmh is ongoing, it appears to be generally
-stable and is in current use. But it is possible that I may break
-things as changes are made.
-
---------------
-installing nmh
---------------
-To install nmh, check the INSTALL and MACHINES files. If you have
-previously used MH, check the file DIFFERENCES for a list of the
-differences between nmh and MH.
-
---------------------------------
-ftp and web sites, mailing lists
---------------------------------
-To find out about the mailing lists, ftp sites, and web page
-for nmh, check the FAQ included in this distribution.
-
----------------
-nmh maintenance
----------------
-nmh is currently being developed and maintained by
-Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>. Please send bug reports
-and suggestions to the nmh development mailing list at
-nmh-workers@math.gatech.edu.
-
-----------------
-acknowledgments
-----------------
-I would like to give credit where it is due. nmh could never have
-been developed without all the hard work that the RAND Corporation
-and the University of California put into the development of the
-MH message system, that nmh is based on.
-
-Also, since I've used the version of (v)snprintf() from the
-Apache web server, I need to make the following acknowlegement:
-
-This product includes software developed by the Apache Group
-for use in the Apache HTTP server project (http://www.apache.org/).
+Installing
+----------
+Please read the INSTALL file.
+
+Copying
+-------
+nmh uses a BSD-style license, which should be in the top-level of the
+distribution in a file named COPYRIGHT.
+
+Developers
+----------
+Information of interest to nmh developers can be found in the
+README.developers file in the docs subdirectory of this distribution.
+If you're hacking on the code, you should also definitely subscribe to
+the nmh-workers mailing list. To do so, please visit the nmh-workers
+info page at
+http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
+If you're interested in working on nmh, but aren't sure what to do, see
+the TODO file in the docs subdirectory. There's plenty of work there.
+
+Working with your shell
+-----------------------
+The files COMPLETION-BASH, COMPLETION-TCSH and COMPLETION-ZSH in the
+docs subdirectory give cookbook examples of how to use the enhanced
+features of these shells with nmh. There is also a section in Jerry
+Peek's book covering nmh/MH and working with the shell. The section is
+available online here: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~mh/book/mh/mhanthsh.htm
+
+For More information
+--------------------
+There is more information, including a FAQ and a bit of historical
+information in the docs subdirectory. There are also links to further
+documentation on the nmh website located at http://nmh.nongnu.org/ .
