  What I'm trying to do is to toss out certain mail, move other
  mail to separate mailboxes for later perusal, etc. - all the
  things that the "pick" command does best.  Now, how do I get
  this to happen every time that mush starts up?  I know that I
  shouldn't put it in the .mushrc file, as no messages have yet
  been read in when that's executed... but I even tried to bind
  the command that I want to run to a key, and it wouldn't let
  me pass an argument.

Use the -source arguemnt to mush when you start up:

% mush -source script_file
