The man pages are quite inconsistant when it comes to refering to SMS or
moira.
----------
[/mit/drmorris]:morgan % man -k moira
moira, listmaint, usermaint, dcmmaint (1) - maintain information stored
in moira
mrcheck (1) - verify that Moira updates are successful
----------
[/mit/drmorris]:morgan % man -k sms
blanche (1) - examine and modify memberships in SMS lists
dcm, startdcm (8) - build config files from SMS database and update
servers
reg_svr, startreg (8) - SMS account registration server
sms_connect, ... Password_input, Put_message(3)
smsd, startsms (8) - SMS query daemon
smstest (8) - perform SMS operations manually
update_server (8) - daemon that accepts config files from SMS
userreg (8) - create an account for a person known to SMS
----------
Note that we have a mutually exclusive list.
The man page for moira/listmaint has the following:

chfn(1), chpobox(1), chsh(1), mailmaint(1), mrlist(1), Moira

There is no such command as mrlist, perhaps we meant mrcheck. Also
refering users to the blanche man page would be helpful.
The adventerous can find other discrepancies as well.
