+.SH Description
+.PP
+The \fR\&\f(CWmtoolstest\fR command is used to tests the mtools configuration
+files. To invoke it, just type \fR\&\f(CWmtoolstest\fR without any arguments.
+\&\fR\&\f(CWMtoolstest\fR reads the mtools configuration files, and prints the
+cumulative configuration to \fR\&\f(CWstdout\fR. The output can be used as a
+configuration file itself (although you might want to remove redundant
+clauses). You may use this program to convert old-style configuration
+files into new style configuration files.

+.SH Viewing\ the\ texi\ doc
+This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo
+documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
+items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this
+translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate
+representation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all information has
+been translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you to
+use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this manpage for
+instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

+The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in
+the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
+quoting conventions used in info.
