Everything is possible...
FRIENDLIST=$HOME/.friends
# we require a trailing space or tab after the address match, whether an

ISLISTED=`grep -i "^$CLEANFROM " $FRIENDLIST `
# This recipe will set VARIABLEFOLDERNAME ONLY if there is a mailbox

%cat .friends
fred(_at_)doamin(_dot_)tld Friends/Fred
mom(_at_)domain(_dot_)tld Family
Bro(_at_)domain(_dot_)tld Family
bob(_at_)domain(_dot_)tld Business/Bob
etc etc
(If you specify "Friends/Fred" then Friends MUST exist ahead of time)
I didn't write this, but someone on this list did, Sean, iirc. been
using it for years.
CLEANFROM is set in my /etc/procmailrc
