 The new nmh-1.4 port has problems doing a 'post' operation on my MBA
 running lion.

 The bug with a fix was reported against nmh 1.4 here:

   http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?35242

 and this patch suggested with the problem report:

   http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/download.php?file_id=24742

 fixes my problem using post.

 Please consider adding this patch to the client.c file.

 To reproduce:

   * 'port install nmh'

   * edit the /opt/local/etc/mts.conf file to change the 'servers:
 localhost' line to your local smtp gateway like: 'servers:
 smtp.example.com' where smtp.example.com is listening for smtp submissions
 on port 25.

  * Use the commands: 'install-mh' to create your nmh mail folder and
 .mh_profile properly.

  * Use the 'comp' command to edit a new message to send somewhere.

  * Save the file in the editor.

  * At the 'what now?' prompt, use 'send -watch -verbose' and you will get
 an error like:


 {{{


 post(92684) malloc: *** error for object 0x100102a3a: pointer being freed
 was not allocated
 set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
 send: message not delivered to anyone

 }}}

 To fix, update the Portfile to patch the nmh-1.4/sbr/client.c file with
 the patch given in the download.php URL given in this message.
