Don't. The "Linux off-line mailing method" mini-HOWTO, while a good
effort (after all, it's not easy to find people nice enough to write
documentation for free) is severely flawed. It doesn't speak about
alternative solutions (such as the obvious one, UUCP) and it describes a
solution which doesn't work (sorting the mail from the headers, while the
headers does not contain the most important thing: the enveloppe).

This doesn't work for Bcc: messages or for mailing lists. That's two good reasons to *not* use it.
