Suns Mailtool has an option to pipe the mail buffer contents. i use this to
postprocess mail via a pretty printer in suntools. it would be nice though
to do this in GNUS and RMAIL. presently, the only way i see to do this in
emacs is to output the file in Unix format and then enter a shell to set
up the command.

is there an easier way to do this ? the c-o and then within a shell
   cat unixfile > prettyprint | lpr &

any ideas appreciated..
