The command: 

cat /home/vpopmail/domains/havokmon.com/rick/Maildir/cur/1236799820.50282.mx.vfemail.net,S=3365:2,S \
| env -v EXT=rick HOST=havokmon.com HOME=/home/vpopmail/domains/havokmon.com/rick \
/usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermailstdout '' rick@havokmon.com 

Causes the ./vdelivermail (which is compiled to send to STDOUT) to
display the email in the terminal

If I run:

cat /home/vpopmail/domains/havokmon.com/rick/Maildir/cur/1236799820.50282.mx.vfemail.net,S=3365:2,S \
| env -v EXT=rick HOST=havokmon.com HOME=/home/vpopmail/domains/havokmon.com/rick \
/usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' rick@havokmon.com

The email will be delivered to my mailbox. So I've got a decent test
environment.

Now appending deliver to that first command line:

cat /home/vpopmail/domains/havokmon.com/rick/Maildir/cur/1236751658.43485.mx.vfemail.net,S=3436:2,S \
| env EXT=rick HOST=havokmon.com HOME=/home/vpopmail/domains/havokmon.com/rick \
/usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermailstdout '' rick@havokmon.com | \
/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver

And it worked too!  Wow.  I'm blown away.  I need a glass of champagne.
Not that I didn't think it would work, but that it worked 'pefectly'
without throwing an error on the first try. :)  I think it took me
longer to figure out how to test it in a shell.

The only problem I see is the new message starts with a (null).
(null)Delivered-To: rick@havokmon.com

Now the null occurs whether I use deliver, the original vdelivermail, or
the new vdelivermailstdout, so I think its part of the cat.  I'll work
on it a little more tomorrow, so I can go to bed happy tonite :)
