If you're using bash (and I'm sure that zsh has a similar feature):

    mutt -s 'my bashrc' -i <(grep -v ^# .bashrc)

Search for "Process Substitution" in the bash man-page.

P.S. My apologies if this thread was continued on mutt-dev.  I am only
subscribed to mutt-users at the moment, and since I'm writing this
mail while offline, I can't check the archives.
