I was successful with this. Later I decided to keep them separate.
I can always import them into evolution (applying the filter rules)
I am still having some problems getting mutt to work.
1. Periodic checking for pop mail ("fetch-mail") doesn't work in spite
of pop_* being set. Should I set spoolfile to pop:// instead ?
2. Specifying filters for incoming mail like
"if msg body has text XYZ, then delete the msg"
"if msg is from mailing list ABC, move to folder ABC"
I'm guessing I need to use "score", but I am not sure how.
Thanks,
Ashish.
