I strongly disagree. Of course it does not make sense to
re-implement procmail in mutt. But the average user does not need
5 percent of procmail's functionality anyway. On the other hand,
many users like to have some mail filtering but are unable to set
up with mutt. I believe this is one of the most common features
people expect from their mail client - and I don't mean UNIX
freaks but just an office user like our secretary.
