 messages removed by this method cannot be later recovered.

 If you prefer a more sophisticated method of `removing' messages, you

+.I rmmproc
+profile component.  For example, you can
 add a profile component such as

+Then instead of simply renaming the message file,
+.B rmm
+will call
 the named program or script to handle the files that represent the
 messages to be deleted.

-Some users of csh prefer the following:
-
-	alias rmm 'refile +d'
-
-where folder +d is a folder for deleted messages, and
-
-	alias mexp 'rm `mhpath +d all`'
-
+The
+.B \-rmmproc
+switch may be used to override this profile component.  The
+.B \-normmproc
+switch disables the use of any
+.I rmmproc
+profile component and negates all prior
+.B \-rmmproc
+switches.
+.PP
+An example of a
+.I rmmproc
+script that saves a message based in its Message-ID is provided in
+%nmhetcdir%/rmmproc.messageid.  To enable it, simply add a
+.I rmmproc
+component that names it to your profile.

 If a folder is given, it will become the current folder.
-.Bu
-Since \fIrefile\fR uses your \fIrmmproc\fP to delete the message,
-the \fIrmmproc\fP must \fBNOT\fP call \fIrefile\fP without specifying
-`\-normmproc', or you will create an infinte loop.

+must
+.B NOT
+call
+.B rmm
+or
+.B refile
+without specifying
+.BR \-normmproc ,
+or you will create an infinite loop.
