I reproduced this bahaviour with the most recent snapshot 20050206.

$ cat /usr/share/doc/mutt-1.4.1/manual.txt | tee tmp2.txt | head -4100
     > /dev/null
tee: standard output: Broken pipe
tee: write error

Unfortunately, the recent fix of cgf in the piping code seems not to fix this
isssue.

Regards,
Christian
