That was changed a while back... but you're right, it doesn't show up
in UPDATING anywhere (and it probably should).

According to the mutt man page, the usage pattern line you're looking
for is this one:
mutt [-nx] [-e cmd] [-F file] [-H file] [-i file] [-s subj]
[-b addr] [-c addr] [-a file [...] --] addr [...]
Essentially, there can be two lists at the end (one of files to attach
and the other of addresses, and they must be separated by a
double-hyphen. In other words, your command should be rewritten:
mutt -s "Documents you required" -a file1 file2 file3 -- myfri...@somewhere
Make sense?
