Oh, I am sorry to hear that. I tested it on my side before and it 
piped a lot from the redirected stream into the file.

Here again:

--- paste:
bastian at t6l ~
1981% mutt > /dev/shm/o
  *blindly pressing q*
bastian at t6l ~
1982% wc /dev/shm/o
   1  599 6251 /dev/shm/o

--- eop

The file /dev/shm/o contains lots and lots of control characters. So 
this would be another task to get them stripped; less -r does it.
