Why do you find it better to review recipes in a tarball?
I've explained why MIME-attached tarballs are frustratingly bad.
How can you read them from your mail client?

I don't :-)

One of RecipeLint's early actions is to unpack the tarball, so it
could take a directory like the one produced by the MailRecipe
format without too much work.  That's probably a good idea, as it
would let people check their local recipes before trying to
Compile them and failing.

If I understood it correctly, I'd need to save the email (or
copy-and-paste it to a file, since I'm using gmail's web interface
here) and process it with a script (such as 'UnpackMailRecipe') in
order to get the recipe available exactly in the same way it's
currently packed, right?

It's just a lot easier to me to uncompress the tarball, give a look on
each individual file / process the tarball with RecipeLint and upload
exactly the same file which was submitted.

Which package is ReviewRecipes in?

It's just a simple script I've written and stored at my
/Files/Compile. It just performs RecipeLint and does a 'less' on its
contents.

Cheers,
