Installing a whole MTA just for filtering purposes???

Here some procmail alternatives:

        * maildrop
          http://www.flounder.net/~mrsam/maildrop/
  
        * mailagent (Perl)
          http://search.cpan.org/search?mode=dist&query=mailagent

        * Kagent (Perl)
          http://patriot.net/~kurt/kagent/
