Sorry, correction:

       # apt-get install docker
       # docker pull debian:stretch
       # docker run -ti debian:stretch bash
       root@e6cbe6c64846:/# apt-get update && apt-get install mailgraph
       root@e6cbe6c64846:/# sed --in-place 's/stretch/buster/' 
/etc/apt/source.list
       root@e6cbe6c64846:/# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

Rebooting that docker container will throw away the changes I guess so 
you'll need to put the commands above that you'd execute inside the 
container in a Dockerfile:

     $ cat Dockerfile
     FROM debian:stretch
     RUN  apt-get update && apt-get install mailgraph
     RUN sed --in-place 's/stretch/buster/' /etc/apt/source.list
     RUN apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

and create a new, dist-upgraded container:

     $ docker build -t debian:stretch2buster Dockerfile
     $ docker run -ti debian:stretch2buster bash

?
