I thought you wanted to use -d? There's really no way to make deliveries
working to multiple users via pipe, unless you use -d.

Perhaps you shouldn't be using the pipe at all. Maybe you should just
put the command to mailbox_command and have it do all the work? Then
there's no need to worry about things like setuid-roots or whatever.
