Ed,
BEAUTIFUL!
But of course it needs some work.

One note:

5. Free MIME software packages.

5.1 free MIME FOR SunOS 4.1.x:
5.2 free MIME FOR BSD
5.3 free MIME for SYSVR4:
5.4 FREE MIME FOR MSDOS:
5.5 free MIME for AmigaOS:
5.6 free MIME for NeXT:
5.7 free MIME for Macintosh:


I do not think dividing between SunOS, BSD and SysVR4 makes sense.
Where would MIXmh fit?

Possibly it would be better to say something like:

5.x Free MIME for Unix/X           (mixmh)
5.x Free MIME for Unix/Terminals   (mhn, pine)
5.x Free MIME for PC/Windows
5.x Free MIME for PC/character based (pine again, I THINK)
5.x Free MIME for AmigaOS
5.x Free MIME for Macintosh

I don't know enough about NeXT to know whether it is an UNIX or a strange
beast, though I suspect the latter....
