I've decided on my EMail Client - Evolution.
I've got fetchmail polling my 6 different email addresses.
I've got procmail running to a small extent.

What I need are:
  a) a better tutorial then the man pages for procmail.
  b) how do I get evolution to play nice with procmail mail ?
  c) assume I want to set up the following folder heirarchy
     each of the top level ones are a different email address. denoted  
     with "*"
I think the biggest thing I am missing how to make procmail set this up.
If I understand evolution correctly, If I use mbox or mh format it
should just work. Of course evolution by default uses a "evolution"
directory.  I have no problem moving the ~/mail directory to somewhere
inside that.
