Hello!
I am unsure whether this fails on the RT.
PROBLEM:
xmh bombs (i.e. exits) if you try to delete a folder which is a
link to a directory which does not exist.
REPEAT BY:
Make a directory, create a link to it in your Mail directory, and
delete the directory. Now open xmh, select the folder, and hit the
"delete folder" button. xmh will bomb.

[/mit/drmorris]:renoir % xmh: No such file or directory
Error in FOpenAndCheck(/mit/drmorris/Mail/tempbox1/.xmhcache, r)
errno = 2
exiting.
WHAT IT SHOULD DO (in my opinion):
xmh should simply delete the link.
