Thanks to:

The short answer is that to do this one needs procmail, and/or formail.
Stephen van den Berg suggested the following:

]Get the procmail/formail combo, write yourself a suitable .procmailrc file
](which will mainly consist of a bunch of regular expressions and a bunch of
]folders you want the mail sorted into), and use the following command-line:
]
]	formail <mbox -s procmail
]
](Or, if you have a non-standard mailbox format, like digests and the like:
]
]	formail <mbox -ds procmail

Thanks again to both.               Dave Fisher  fisher@lyra.hac.com
