Dear Mutt Users,
I am not sure if this is a bug of mutt, or my poor knowledge of Linux.
I would expect that this command:
echo mymaildir | xargs mutt -f
be equivalent to:
mutt -f mymaildir
But instead, mutt complains about ``no recipient specified''.
Please help me to figure this out!
An
he terminal''
Is that possible?
Is it possible to call Mutt from within scripts accepting pipe input?

I knew it was a Linux question.
