Mutt'll do it just fine. I have to agree with Joshua here. He's right on all counts, but I've always preferred to have an external application do my filtering, so I do use procmail. That way, mail gets sorted upon arrival instead of when I check my mail. Probably more a matter of preference on that point, but you CAN use mutt.
