reprocessing an mbox of mail already received

When Marco asked,

Last but not least: I understand the sandbox suggestion, but can't
remember how do you re-process from the command line a mailbox file
previously created. What's the trick?

Andrew replied,

| Assuming an mbox mail file, "cat mailbox | formail -s procmail"

Give that man a UUCA.  Better,

 formail -s procmail < mailbox

If you are positive that there is only one message in the file,

 procmail < mailbox

will do the job.
