Re: script with sed

Collin recommended to Tomcat ... well, lots of stuff and most of it
looks right on target, but I noticed this:

|     :0h
|     NewSubj=| formail -czXSubject: | head -1 | sed -e 's/\*-.*$//'
                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
              formail -czuXSubject:

Save one process and let formail do, pardon the expression, the head job
with its -u option.

Interesting.  Even if there were no -u option to formail
(wich I frankly hadn't noticed before, so I found this
valuable), one could also have used sed for the same:

  |  NewSubj=| formail -czXSubject: | sed -e '2,$ d' -e 's/\*-.*$//'
