Thank you! This is almost what I want!

Can you tell me how can I use regexp to match the file name that mutt
tell emacs to edit: /tmp/mutt-mylogin-date in elisp?

Then I can use the following elisp(in pseudo-code):

(or (regexp-match ("/tmp/mutt-[^-]+-[0-9-]+", file-name))
        (progn
           (load "desktop")
           (desktop-load-default)
           (desktop-read)))


If I got this done, the problem is solved perfectly :)

So please tell me how to program the predict:
(regexp-match ("/tmp/mutt-[^-]+-[0-9-]+", file-name))
