For plain text, the right stuff should just happen ASSUMING you have
iconv installed and nmh was linked against it.  If you're curious, run
"mhparam iconv", if it returns "iconv", then you shouldn't need anything
else there.

For HTML, nmh should look at installation time for one of the following
three programs (in order): w3m, lynx, elinks.  If they are installed and
available, sensible default should be placed in mhn.defaults to make sure
the right things are happening.

So, if you're having problems ... speak up!  I'm interested to know what
isn't working.
