[comp.mail.mh] "whom -check" says "whom: only one message at a time!"

For several years, on different computers running MH, whenever I've used
"whom", it's always said:
	whom: only one message at a time!
and given up there, without checking the address.

Today, I found out that it's caused by the "-check" switch in my .mh_profile:
	whom: -alias ~/.mh_alias -check
If I delete the "-check", "whom" works fine.  (BTW, using "-nocheck" gives
the same mysterious "only one message" error.)

My .mh_profile also has:
	Draft-Folder: draftf
and "whom -help" gives:
	version: MH 6.6 #1[UCI] (ics) of Tue May 24 15:51:53 PDT 1988
	options: [BSD42] [BSD43] [BERK] [MHRC] [DUMB] [RPOP] [NETWORK] [BIND]
		 [RPATHS] [UCI] [MHE] [SENDMTS] [POP]

Anyone know what's wrong?  Am I missing something obvious?  Thanks a lot...
