Commands for the mailer. Womble on!
h [range] ............ Main menu (showing subjects and stuff). If you give a range the subjects in the range will be displayed. Otherwise as many as fit on your screen. "h all" will show all subjects, even if that means you get 6 screens at once :-). m <name> ............. Mails to the given person(s). r [num] ..............

It will be created if it didn't exist yet. s [range] <filename> . Creators only: saves given message(s) to given file. If no full pathname was given it will be saved in the current directory(!). The resulting file is in E-mail format, so it can be read by an E-mail program. i .................... Index of your mail folders. You always have an inbox. c <name> .............

It asks if you want to move the read messages from your inbox to the received folder. ? .................... Display this help file. <num> ................ Display given message.
Return on a blank line will display the next unread message.
A range is defined as a list of comma seperated numbers or spans. So "1-2" is defined as well as "1,2,3" and "all" is a special case that means all messages, so "d all" is a valid command.
It does intelligent matching, so if there are 4 messages and you typed "d 1-30" it will delete the 4 messages and will not complain.
You can execute all commands by just typing the letter, the mailer will then explain what you have to type.
