Depends on when you want it sorted. Mutt does have the capability to save read mails to certain folders automagically, but that is after it has already been delivered to your spool file. If you want them sorted before you read them, then you will need software such as procmail. You set up a recipe, and fetchmail sends the mail to procmail to sort it into the appropriate mailbox depending on content. There are others, but procmail is what i use with fetchmail, and it seems to work well for me. The one thing that I have found is that Mutt's own getmail function doesn't send it thru procmail. Don't know how to change that, so I simply set up a macro to run fetchmail. 8o) Knute
