Subject: Question: How to edit existing mail?

Occasionally I have the need to edit received mail before ( or after) 
storing it in a folder! For example: adding a subject line (some authors
don't do this much to my distraction), deleting extraneous material,
adding other anotations, etc...   It is possible to do this by directly
editing the folders as text, but would be nice to do it while inside
pine! However, my reading of the configuration and help files does not
provide me with an answer!  I tried using the unix pipe command to 
an editor like vi or xedit, but the former got confused  and the latter
got no copy of the mail file!  
	Any suggestions would be most appreciated!
Regards,
Ed
