You changed 'mutt -F $MUTTRC' in /usr/bin/mailx or /usr/ucb/Mail, as 
appropriate, I assume? That'll work.

Your /bin/sh chokes on

 if ! test $# -gt 3

Btw, you should use lr_log2report, not lr_log2mail. I doubt if
the script will possibly run on a solaris machine without severe
hacking. You could try changing the #!/bin/sh into #!/path/to/bash
or #!/path/to/ksh.  That'll be the fasted workaround, if you've got a 
bash or ksh installed.  I am planning to make the shell scripts more 
portable. It's hard for me to test, as you know. The shell scripts
_do_ run with FreeBSD's and OpenBSD's /bin/sh, however. 
 
Bye,
