Re: stdin as mbox

The short answer is no.

The longer answer is that you can probably wrap something around
mutt that captures stdin, dumps it into a temporary file, runs mutt,
and then removes that temporary file.

No... mutt needs to be able to seek to random locations in an mbox, 
which would force it to either keep the entire thing in memory, or to 
create a file to keep it in... at which point, you may as well put it 
in a file yourself and point mutt at it. For example:

 #!/bin/sh
 tmpfile=`mktemp -t foo.XXX`
 cat - >$tmpfile
 mutt -f $tmpfile
 rm $tmpfile

Is it possible to send stdin as an mbox to mutt?

Thanks, Malahal.
