procmail can filter out duplicates and sort messages into "folders" 
(directories under ~/mail):

     PATH=$HOME/procmail:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/local/bin:.
     MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
     # DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/mbox
     LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmaillog
     LOCKFILE=$HOME/.lockmail

     # Weed out duplicate messages.
     :0 Wh: msgid.lock
     | /usr/local/bin/formail -D 8192 $HOME/.msgid.cache

     # FreeBSD Questions Mailing list
     :0
     * ^List-Id:.*freebsd-questions.freebsd.org
     $MAILDIR/FreeBSD-Questions

This puts questions messages in a "folder" called FreeBSD-Questions 
(which you should probably create beforehand).  You'll also need a 
.forward file or FEATURE(local_procmail) in your sendmail .mc file to 
use procmail.
