+;;; Commentary:
+
+;;; Internal support for mh-e package.
+;;; Support for generating an mhn composition file.
+;;; MIME is supported only by MH 6.8 or later.
+
+;;; Code:
+
+(provide 'mh-mime)
+(require 'mh-comp)
+
+
+;; To do:
+;; paragraph code should not fill # lines if MIME enabled.
+;; implement mh-auto-edit-mhn (if non-nil, \\[mh-send-letter]
+;; invokes mh-edit-mhn automatically before sending.)
+;; actually, instead of mh-auto-edit-mhn,
+;; should read automhnproc from profile
+;; MIME option to mh-forward
+;; command to move to content-description insertion point
