I have a number of shell scripts that do mail refiling in the
traditional "mh" way, where I often do things like this:

  refile `pick +inbox \
        -from           [email protected] \
    -or -to             [email protected] \
    -or --apparently-to [email protected] \
  ` +BALUG

The Gnu utils version of pick does not seem to know what to
make of something like "--apparently-to", it gives me the
error:

  pick: unrecognized option `--apparently-to'

With nmh, the double hyphen indicates you're matching a mail
header field (aka a "component") with some arbitrary name, in
this case: "Apparently-to:"
