System name:		infocalypse
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.6R
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	Clean out my mailbox.

What's wrong:
	All these core files keep popping up.  =)

	More specifically, mark dumps core if one or more of the
	following are true:
	  (1) ~/Mail/foldername/.mh_sequences does not exist
	  (2) ~/Mail/foldername/.mh_sequences is empty
	  (3) .mh_profile contains the line "mh-sequences:"

	mh-rmail (in Emacs) runs mark from mh-visit-folder.

What should have happened:
	MH should read all my mail for me and determine what I want to
	throw away.  But that's just a pipe dream.  =)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	mh-profile(5) manpage says:

	     mh-sequences: .mh_sequences
	               The name of the file in each folder which defines
	               public sequences.  To disable the use of public
	               sequences, leave the value portion of this entry
	               blank.  (profile, default: .mh_sequences)
