Documentation

Program used to scan messages.

The name of the program that generates a listing of one line per message is held in this option. Unless this variable contains an absolute pathname, it is assumed to be in the mh-progs directory. You may link another program to scan (see
"mh-profile(5)") to produce a different type of listing.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in MH-E version
6.0.
