ok?
No.

Except for the missing double quote that Klaus already pointed
out, this starts up one process too many.
Also, /tmp and ~ may lie on different file systems, which would
make the mv *very* expensive.

How about
   sed -e 's/\<lies\>/misinformation/g' < ~/mbox > ~/mbox.new
   mv ~/mbox.new ~/mbox
?

Just kidding,

Carsten.
