I'm fairly sure that mutt will only source the output of a command if
the output of a command is a filename for mutt to source :)
The .muttrc is fairly robust. You can put almost any shell command into
backticks (``), and it will be as though the output of that command is
actually in the .muttrc file. This is why mutt is so much better than
pine :)
