Maybe this isn't helpful for the command-line set, but I've found
Mozilla mail to be an excellent replacement for Eudora (no ads!), and it
has mail filters. Not sure about notification, although mailboxes with
new messages show up as bold in the mailbox pane.

Best of all it's cross-platform so you can try it alongside Eudora on
Windows and then migrate everything to FreeBSD when ready. (I haven't
actually *tried* this WRT mailbox settings, YMMV-- but at least they
look and work the same.)
