You can re-process an existing mailbox using

formail -s procmail < ~/mailbox

Thank you all for the reply, I have got my mails in maildir format in
.muttmail in different mailboxes procmailed by a feeble procmailrc when
they first get popped.

Now I would carefully do procmail to them once again. I will give all
the suggested solution a go and report the results.

Thanks again,
Zhang
