+Yes, it is.  If you have access to the MH source, look in the
+miscellany directory for something to do with rn.  For those who don't
+have access to the MH source, try this:

	[process for invoking MH in rn for replies deleted]

i asked the same question last year, and someone (i don't remember 
whom, but it was a very kind reader of this group) sent me the magic
line for your .cshrc, or (as i use it) your .rninit:

-EMAILPOSTER=\
"MHCONTEXT=/tmp/mhc.%L comp -form %h -editor ${VISUAL-${EDITOR-emacs}}"

this line, in connection with the fields that you set in the
envariable MAILHEADER, is all you need to use MH instead of Rmail
within rn.
