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