Dusty,

The message file (my example was yadayada.txt) is passed by the imail server
to the program alias.  WHatever your alias is set for, imail will add to
this command string the full filename of the mail message which is located
in the spool directory.

Check out the knowledge base and search for the keyword 'bluebird' - don't
ask me why they named it that.
