If anyone is interested, I have added a pipe command to the
"While reading anything" commands.  While reading a note or
a response, you may enter |.  The user is prompted for the
command to pipe to, and the note or response is piped into
that command.  Useful for | lp or | mail <user> if you do not
want to edit the text.

If you are interested in a diff (from 1.7) for this "enhancement",
drop me some mail.
