filter?

http://userpages.umbc.edu/~ian/procmail.html

The above link is useful ; It is descibing how to use 'procmail'
which does filtering which u are looking for ;

I do n't have a chance to work on that as i don't have procmail in my system;

You can also use /etc/aliases (or /etc/mail/aliases) to specify aliases (as you'd expect!) that will redirect mail to "other" users mailboxes with sendmail. After any edits to the alias file, run newaliases. If you want to temporarily redirect a users e-mails, put a .forward file in their home directory containing the redirect email address.

This is all dependent on what your definition is of "filtering".

Thanks for your responses.

Sorry I could not understand u'r answers... Let me explain you my complete need. I have a remove server. Let me consider that i have two mail accounts in it say,

a@myserver.com
b@myserver.com

I have created mail directories like yahoo for a@myserver.com and hotmail for b@myserver.com...

My need is that when-ever a@myserver.com gets mail from yahoo, it has to be directly delivered to yahoo folder in a@myserver.com. If b@myserver.com gets mail from hotmail it has to be directly delivered to hotmail folder in b@myserver.com and all the other mail of the respective users can be delivered to Inbox folder....

How should i do that and where can i configure these settings...

Thanks in advance
