I wonder if the file got installed with wrong permissions? I've seen installers
screw the pooch because root's default umask was 077, and I'm insufficiently
caffeinated to suss out what nmh does.

This works for me:

12:24:12 0 [~] ls -l /usr/local/etc/nmh/mts.conf
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1778 Feb 13 14:52 /usr/local/etc/nmh/mts.conf
12:24:15 0 [~] egrep -v '^$|^#' /usr/local/etc/nmh/mts.conf
mts: smtp
mmdfldir: /var/mail
mmdflfil:
servers: localhost
12:24:36 0 [~] grep send .mh_profile
send: -nomime -msgid -server smtp.gmail.com -port 587 -tls -sasl -user 
address@hidden

(I never added the proper server name to mts.conf because it was bouncing all
over the place, partly due to hysterical raisins, while my employer was first 
drinking the
Google kook-aid.)
