How do you get the Finder to reveal the contents, though?  That's the
"hard, isn't it" part :)

I was being a bit cryptic when I posted. My real thoughts were: "why on
earth would anybody want to open an mbox in the Finder?"

Jonathan says he wants "reveal" functionality. Why? We don't know.

If it's very, very important to look at the icons perhaps we could mock-up a "reveal". Here's a step-through:

1. make new directory named after mbox
2. make aliases to contents of mbox and store them in new directory
3. open the new directory in the finder thereby "revealing" the contents of the mbox
