Thanks.  I found that one quite easily, but I couldn't access this
server to say so for a while. 

This variable is not customized, not in the .info documentation, and
doesn't have a doc string.

Also, I don't understand its default setting of nil (or, indeed, the
reason the variable exists).  MH has no trouble dealing with empty
folders.  

Or, perhaps it is cleanest and clearest if the functions that check
`nnmh-allow-delete-final' should check `nnmail-keep-last-article'
instead.
