How does this correspond to what the man page for matchup says:

       matchup  exits after it sees end of file.  It prints pend
       ing messages and deliveries on descriptor 5, in  a  format
       suitable for input to a future invocation of matchup:

          <log.1 matchup >out.1 5>pending.2
          cat pending.2 log.2 | matchup >out.2 5>pending.3
          cat pending.3 log.3 | matchup >out.3 5>pending.4
