The usual approach is to "push" the requisite keystrokes, which then get 
played.

However, to "bounce" a message from the command line it is far more 
expedient to just go:

    sendmail -oi addr addr addr ... < message

which is all mutt will be doing. Drops the same messages straight into 
the local mail system for deliver to the specified addrs.
