     /NOEDIT

    Defines the editor or command procedure to be used for the current edit
    session of a particular attachment number. Use /NOEDIT to bypass the edit
    session.

    The /EDIT (or /NOEDIT) qualifier overrides the current text editor. The
    current text editor is defined in the following precedence:

      o with the /EDIT or /NOEDIT qualifier

      o as defined by the MAIL$EDIT logical (callable_[lse,edt,teco,tpu] or
        DCL command procedure filename). Refer to the OpenVMS User's Manual
        for more information.

      o as defined in the SYS$MANAGER or user's MIME$MAILCAP.DAT with the
        edit option. Refer to SHOW CONTENT_TYPE HELP section for examples.

           edit=lsedit %s

      o set in the user's MAIL profile with the MAIL command set edit.
        MIME reads the user's mail profile record when invoked.

           MAIL> set edit [lse,edt,teco,tpu]

      o MIME default editor of EDIT/EDT

    NOTE: The /NOEDIT is useful for formatting blank MIME messages,
          or when a command procedure is used interractively or in BATCH
          mode.

 	 This can be used to avoid recursive command procedure invocation
 	 and process quota exhaustion.
