# Not sure what's going on here, although I never piped anything through
# hypermail like this.

Try this:
---------
cd tests
for i in mboxes/t[0-9]*
do
        cat $i | ../src/hypermail -p -i -u -c "test.rc"
        sleep 1
done

If you are piping something into hypermail then you need to tell it that.

     -i Reads in articles from standard input.

     -u This updates archives by one message only. With this
          option, only one email message will be read in from a
          file or standard input. This message will be added to
          the end of the existing HTML file archive and will be
          integrated into it by links and cross-references. All
          archive index files will be regenerated to include the
          new message.

Or if you use the config file only:

increment = 1
          Set this to 1 to read one article only and append it to
          existing archives.

mbox = NONE
          This is the mailbox to read messages in from. Set this
          with a value of NONE to read from standard input.
