  Run the following (or add it to your init file) to prevent the
  addition of a `~' prefix in front each line of the header of saved
  messages.
  
	:unset embedded-header-escape

  MH:
     Save your files with +$F/$N.  For example, if you save message 10
     in news.software.nn in this way, you will create a file called
     ~/News/news/software/nn/10.  If you have a symbolic link from
     ~/Mail/news to ~/News, then you can look at your saved nn
     messages with "scan +news/news/software/nn".

     This method stands a small chance of overwriting existing
     messages if you add messages to these folders outside of news.
     You may also wish to run "folder -pack" occasionally to renumber
     the messages starting with 1.  Brian's solution below avoids
     these problems.

  Mail
     Add "set mail-format" to your init file.

  The following script allows the easy saving of articles into any MH
  folder, giving the article a message number one higher than the
  current highest messge.  It deliberately does not provide group name
  defaulting.

  Add the following to your init file:

	set default-save-file |nnsave2mh

  
  Where nnsave2mh looks like:

	if test $1; then
		cat <&0 > `mhpath new +$1`
	else
		cat <&0 > `mhpath new +news`
	fi

  When you save in nn, you'll be prompted by "|nnsave2mh".  Enter the
  name of the folder (minus the `+'); otherwise, the message will be
  saved in +news.
