Procmail is a mail filtering program... for more info see:

        http://www.umbi.umd.edu/computing/procmail.html

which explains it better than I can :) This is but one of many fine
Procmail tutorial sites. Some others are:

        http://ssil.uoregon.edu/~trenton/autopage/page7547.html
        
        http://www.voicenet.com/~dfma/intro.html

And one by one of the list members (Andrew)

And... (whew) the essential reference on mail filtering:
