I suspect that your .bashrc is putting /usr/local/bin at the front of $PATH,
and whatever your GUI does to launch exmh fails to do so....

Unfortunately, mhpath allows you to customize ~/Mail, and there's a
build-time option to say where /usr/$SOMETHING/lib/nmh is, but it
assumes that $PATH does the right thing....  so yeah, looks like a
short wrapper script that sets PATH and does an exec of exmh is called for....
