btw, mailman pipermail archives aren't quite correct mbox format. pipermail mangles both the date and sender address in the From_ line (envelope sender) and the address in the From: header (changing "@" to "at"). i usually run pipermail archives through the following perl script (fix-pipermail.pl) before loading them into mutt:
#! /usr/bin/perl -ni.bak
