Good call on the manual page. I forgot the '+1' argument to formail,
which would make my example create an infinite loop ... Chalk it up to
my agitation at seeing "not an option". :-/. Forgetting the -d would
also make the whole thing not work. Consider me duly chastised.

Still, these days with pop3 and imap, i believe most people will be
happier with re-inserting the split digest to the mail-queue than just
dumping to an mbox file, so my post was not entirely without merit.
