Just read, say, 64 bytes from /dev/random and base64 encode it.
Would /dev/urandom suffice? Entropy can be in short supply in some
environments, e.g. VMs, and given it's MH it may be being scripted to

heirloom-mailx uses /dev/urandom with a fallback if it's not available.
/dev/urandom is fine.
64 bytes? Though 64 bits seems too short.
