making procmail sort a large mail folder

1997-01-22 07:39:25
I have some large mail folders which I want to process.
Can I get procmail to be in charge of this?

The manual describes only how procmail can take stuff sent by the
system mailer, and divert it. I don't have control of the system
mailer.

What I want to do is throwing away some letter, putting others in folders,
putting others in unique files ---- all the things that procmail is
designed to do well.

readmsg is available on our system, if it would be a useful tool to
use for my purposes.

Please reply by email direct to me.
