    Procmail is a mail pre-processing package written and supported by 
Stephen van der Berg (sp?) that runs under Unix and Unix-like systems.  
It can do many things with mail after it is delivered and before it is 
processed by a mail-user agent (pine, elm, whatever).  Many people use 
procmail to sort incoming mail into various separate folders (such as 
mailing list mail each into their own), although procmail will do much 
more than this.  To do much more than simple mail filtering, it seems to 
be assumed that the user knows a lot about Unix.
