We have mh installed on our DEC 5500 ULTRIX4.1 and slocal is broken.. 
But I remembered that at work, we have a DEC 3100 running mh in which
the slocal was fixed.. so I copied it over to the 5500 and it 
runs fine, BUT when I got everthing set up I had it pipe the message
through my own version of biff.   It reads the From (not From:) line
and picks out the address and then prints out 
MAIL from <that address>  and then the cursor backs up to the M in 
mail, thus leaving the screen mostly un-effected. This program needs 
the From line and slocal steals it for some reason.  Is there any 
way to get it to pass the whole damn message instead of just what is 
left over after slocal messes it up?  

This is the version mh running on this machine.. BUT

This is the version mh that I stole the working slocal from.
