How to set up several Email accounts from one account?

Dear Fellow Unix users,
	I am a 'newbie' to posting to the newsgroup. Recently, I opened
an account at best.com and I have also registered a domain name here (say,
dynamiatech.com). I was told that all emails sent to that address
(e.g. info@dynamiatech.com, janitor@dynamiatech.com, ...) and dynamia@best.com
all go to the same address. This is fine. 
	Now I'd like to setup several email accounts within this one
account so that emails to info@dynamiatech.com will go to the info
directory, janitor@dynamiatech.com to the janitor directory, etc... so
that I can check emails of particularly addresses separately, and when
I reply emails, the corresponding sender addresses are used.  And I'd
like to do this in UNIX (i.e. this will be a shell login deal as
opposed to using netscape, eudora ...
	Ideally, the preferred email client is 'pine', which does support
different incoming mail folders.
	Also, there is way to configure sender's address with a browser (not
shell login deal) but this seems inconvenient and I prefer the shell login
approach)
	The best way is to know if an existing software (e.g. pine, ...)
already supports this and how to configure them to do the above. But
writing perl scripts or C programming solutions and like are also okay.

	Any help or experience on how to set this up will be greatly 
appreciated. If this problem is of general interest, please post it
to the group. Otherwise, I'd appreciate that you can email me directly
at, hmm, janitor@dynamiatech.com.


Sincerely,

Xiao
