{\rightskip=0pt
\lp
The UCI version of the Rand Message Handling System (\MH/) is discussed,
including important extensions.
\MH/ is a powerful user agent which operates in the ARPA Internet and UUCP
environments.
In addition to the basic functions provided by a user agent,
such as reading and sending mail,
\MH/ has several distinguishing characteristics which give the user
additional message handling capabilities.
In particular,
\MH/ provides mechanisms for organizing messages,
tailoring its own behavior,
and extending its functions.
\lp
This document describes \MH/ from several perspectives.
Particular emphasis is given to:
the \MH/ user environment,
advanced features of \MH/ which have proven to be particularly useful for
sophisticated users of electronic mail,
\MH/'s potential as a record manager,
and
\MH/ as a part of a distributed mail environment.
Although \MH/ as been widely used since its creation in 1979,
a discussion of its perspectives and functionality has not appeared in the
open literature.
