Here's a quick little script:
#!/bin/sh
perl -ne 'while(chomp($_=<STDIN>),$_) {}; while(<STDIN>) { print; };' |
par 72gqr

macro blah "unset display_filter"

or with my displayfilter [1], to remove only that filter:
macro blah "!grep -v '^formatter$' < ~/.mutt/displayfilterlist > 
~/.mutt/tempfile && mv ~/.mutt/tempfile ~/.mutt/displayfilterlist"

or, if you've just downloaded the latest version of my setup [2]:
macro blah "!~/.mutt/displayfilter.del 'par 72gqr'"
macro unblah "!~/.mutt/displayfilter.add 'par 72gqr'"

...or even simpler:
message-hook . !~/.mutt/displayfilter.add `par 72gqr'
message-hook mutt !~/.mutt/displayfilter.del `par 72gqr'

Enjoy,

Uncle Cosmo, why do they call this a word processor?
It's simple, Skyler.  You've seen what food processors do to food, right?
