Thanks, Britta. I'm aware of procmail, but haven't really taken a proper
look at it. I've already got sendmail running on my local server, so that
part of the equation shouldn't be a problem. I'll man it tonight and see
what's involved.

To be brutally honest, though, I was looking for something more (l)user
friendly, a sort of an all-in one app if I could find it. You see, I'm one
of those terrible people who aren't really curious about those aspects of
computing outside of a fairly narrow sphere[*]. For me, it's the WWW as a
social tool.

[* Well, okay, I *am* curious about everything, but not in the
14-hours-more-and-I-just-might-grok-this hackerly sense.]
