Of course you could also use fetchmail's "mda" option to make an
account be delivered to an arbitrary file.

But you probably don't care about that. What I've learned from this
long and silly thread is there are plenty of ways to receive mail from
several accounts and keep them separated, but none that you like. Too
bad.
