The trick is to run formail from your .procmailrc. I'll post the
example from the procmailex manpage:
:0:
* ^Subject:.*surfing.*Digest
| formail +1 -ds >>surfing
All messages containing "surfing" and "Digest" in the Subject: header
(that condition should match the surfing list digests) are piped
to formail which splits them, skipping what it considers the first
message. The output, ie the separate messages, are appended to folder
"surfing". So all the messages from one digest go into one mailbox. No
more filtering is necessary.
For mutt-users you would use something like:
:0:
* ^Subject:.*mutt-users-digest
| formail +1 -ds >>mutt-users
