procmail would be a much better solution. For example, here is a small
bit from my .procmailrc:

# where mail is stored
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
# mutt-users mailing list
:0:
* ^Sender:.*owner-mutt-users@mutt\.org
mutt-users
# anything else goes here
:0:
Inbox
# end

My own is much more complicated, but that's just a basic example. You'd
of course need to add new mailboxes lines to your muttrc for the folders
you filter into.
