The -h form is used when invoked from rn. If your editor can edit multiple files, and you want the article to which you are replying to
show up as an alternate file, define the environment variable MAILPOSTER as "Rnmail -h %h %A". You can also modify the the MAILHEADER
environment variable to change the header file that rn passes to Rnmail.
