SYNOPSIS
      mhmail [addrs...[-body text][-cc addrs...][-from text]
             [-subject subject]][-help]


DESCRIPTION

     The mhmail  command is  used to incorporate  messages and
     compose messages.  The  mhmail command is part  of the MH
     (Message Handling)  package and can  be used with  MH and
     AIX commands.

     The mhmail  command entered  by itself  incorporates mes-
     sages from your mailbox.   If you specify user addresses,
     mhmail  accepts text  from your  terminal and  composes a
     message.   You  can  end  the message  text  by  pressing
     END OF FILE.  mhmail sends a copy  of the message to each
     specified address.
