| 34 | <P>This documents contains answers to some of the frequently |
| 35 | asked question on MHonArc. MHonArc is |
| 36 | a <A HREF="http://perl.com/perl/">Perl</A> program |
| 37 | for converting e-mail messages as specified in RFC 822 and <A |
| 38 | HREF="http://www.pobox.com/~ehood/MIME/MIME.html">MIME</a> to <A |
| 39 | HREF="http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/MarkUp/MarkUp.html">HTML</A>. |
| 40 | MHonArc has the ability to maintain an archive of converted |
| 41 | messages, or it can be used as a basic e-mail->HTML converter. </P> |
| 42 | |
| 43 | <P>The FAQ is intended to compliment the documentation provided in |
| 44 | the MHonArc distribution. The documentation is still |
| 45 | the key source to answers to any question you may have. |
| 46 | While reading this FAQ, it may be beneficial to have the |
| 47 | documentation easily accessible. |
