nmh: init at 1.7.1

These tools are mainly useful for writing scripts that manipulating
claws-mail's mail folders.  I doubt anybody uses nmh to read their
email anymore, and most other mail clients have migrated to maildir.

+      This is the nmh mail user agent (reader/sender), a command-line based
+      mail reader that is powerful and extensible.  nmh is an excellent choice
+      for people who receive and process a lot of mail.
+
+      Unlike most mail user agents, nmh is not a single program, rather it is
+      a set of programs that are run from the shell.  This allows the user to
+      utilize the full power of the Unix shell in coordination with nmh.
+      Various front-ends are available, such as mh-e (an emacs mode), xmh, and
+      exmh (X11 clients).
+
+      nmh was originally based on MH version 6.8.3, and is intended to be a
+      (mostly) compatible drop-in replacement for MH.
