David,
Are you using POP3 or IMAP?
Personally, I'm using IMAP so that I can always telnet in to read my
mail (using PINE) if I'm not at my workstation.
As I'm using IMAP, I can use procmail to pre-filter my mail ;-)
If you're using POP3, you'll have to get messanger to do the filtering.
This will be done each time mail is downloaded, however you may need to
do a refresh on the open mailbox to show any new entries.
