Or, anything after -a and before any other token beginning with - is
considered an attachment. Examples:
1. mutt -s S -a A B C -- D
A, B and C are attachments; D is a recipient.
2. mutt -s S -a A B -- C D
A and B are attachments; C and D are recipients.
3. mutt -a A B C -s S D
A, B and C are attachments; D is a recipient.
4. mutt -s S -a A B C
A is an attachment; B and C are recipients. (Same as current
behavior.)
I don't like that the parser cannot know the type of the tokens
following "-a A" until another "-" token or the end of the line is
reached, but I thought I'd throw out the idea anyway.
