Yes, with the use of procmail... it's in the ports. You'll need to
remake your sendmail cf to use procmail as the delivery agent (by
adding "FEATURE(local_procmail)" to your .mc), then it's as
easy as adding a few lines to your /usr/local/etc/procmailrc :

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/Maildir/

and ... tada :)
