[Nmh-workers] protection vs mode in man pages

inc.man uses the IMHO somewhat clunky

        If the user's profile contains a "Msg-Protect: nnn" entry,
        it will be used as the protection on the newly created messages

before finishing with

        Msg-Protect: To set mode when creating a new message and audit-file.

Only inc.man and rcvstore.man use the 'protection' construct.

I propose that something as simple as switching 'mode' for 'protection':

        If the user's profile contains a "Msg-Protect: nnn" entry,
        it will be used as the mode on the newly created messages

makes things a little clearer and more consistent.

One could go a little further and swap 'set' for 'used':

        If the user's profile contains a "Msg-Protect: nnn" entry,
        it will be set as the mode on the newly created messages

Thoughts?
