Thanks, works great ! I think I'll wrap this up in a script for mail-based peer review of code under git, something like this: TMPMBOX=$$.git.mbox git format-patch --stdout HEAD^^..HEAD^ > ${TMPMBOX} mutt -f /tmp/x -e 'push "<reply><quit>"' rm ${TMPMBOX} Do you think there's any way to avoid the temporary file ? --strk;
