The contents of /proc/[1-9]* change rapidly enough that a precompiled
search database isn't likely to useful.  (The other contents are
fairly static, at least as far as filenames go, so they could be
included usefully, if that's possible without including all of /proc.)
You can still use "find" to search /proc on the fly.

You can use "Content-Disposition: inline" with an attachment to send
only one copy, but make it be both recognized as an attachment and
displayed along with the message.
