I thought you could run the message through a pipe as long as it's ascii
armored.

Pipe this message through a rot13 filter, tr a-z n-za-m, to get back to
the orig. Just noticed that pine takes you to a viewer for that, so
replying sucks :(. You can forward the piped text, but can't reply to
it. Pretty lame.

Oh well, I'm planning on figuring out how to get mutt to work like I want
it to anyway...

I use procmail anyhow.

It has many peculiararities.
