Sun Managers,

Just in case I'm not the only one who didn't know...........

Apparently, there are a variety of ways to filter mail:

a.) Procmail - This was by far the most recommended filtering
    solution. It can be obtained from:
    ftp.informatik.rwthaachen.de:/pub/packages/procmail

b.) mush, pine, elm - Recommended for a variety of things.
    Elm includes a filter tool which can (apparently) be
    used without Elm.

c.) .forward - I didn't think of it, but it's easy to add
    a pipe to a script that filters all incoming mail.

d.) Lotus Notes - Apparently you can write scripts to sort
    mail in this...
