Well, it isn't difficult to guess that a Linux distribution
ships with a GNU implementation while BSD doesn't.

Some problems with word ``pipe'' here. ``Pipe'' means
nothing else than catching output of process A and passing
it to B as input. So to say, the pipe function in mutt does
cat(1) all tagged messages to a command. Of course, if your
command (uudeview, uudecode, whatever) can handle multiple
encoded files, you can tag-pipe all messages at once.
