Well there's Souper which will download mail over POP (and news on
NNTP too) into a SOUP format packet... which can then be read using
the Yarn Off-Line mail/news reader -- yarn has filtering -- NOTHING as
good as procmail... but if you just want your POP mail filtered for
mailing lists and purposes like that it works very well. Or if you are
a programmer and want to write a new filter program for it -- it's
possible. <-:
Comes in OS/2, DOS, Win32 flavours... see www.vex.net/yarn/
I use Yarn here. I also use Procmail on my shell... procmail gets to
do all the real dirty work... and the nifty-fun stuff. Yarn at this
end does the more simple filtering/scoring of mail/news to various
areas after i download whatever mail procmail has let slip through...
