Is it possible tha this is caused by having the exmh or nmh rpms
provided by redhat installed on a machine?  I think hotline installed
one of their machines before Greg updated the RPM list to remove exmh.

It's been depricated for that long, but we've always installed the
symlink for exactly this reason.  If we're not going to provide the
link, we need to make that decision consciously.
