Procmail is indeed a close relative to Sendmail, it's rc file syntax
is bloody. I propose Mail::Audit if you know Perl, Maildrop otherwise.

Yes, that's the mbox format. Mutt should have no problems at all with
retrieving single messages, just copy or move them in a new Mailbox.

There are also lots of tools available for the mbox format, you can
extract mails with grepmail or formail.
