I have been looking for a printable copy of the documentation for ez, messages...
in the distribution.  Is there such a thing in the distribution?  Are there
scripts to combine the help files.  I'm finding it difficult to learn with just
the help.  

Also, I can't find much information on configuring the system once it is compiled.
We would be installing it for existing users who have things like MH folders or
mailx folders. Can we munge these into messages folders?

Thanks for any input.

We've made the help files available in Posctscript format for anon-ftp
from the host emsworth.andrew.cmu.edu (128.2.45.40) in the directory
./cdrom/doc/helpdocs.  There are some other documents written about
Andrew in ./cdrom/doc/papers.

You can configure the system after compilation with the AndrewSetup file
mechanism.  See the help topic 'setup'.
