When I was at ATT-BTL there was an experimental command called ferret.
I was told it was probably targeted
for the next release of UNIX.  ferret was a pgm which read your mail
and allowed you do most anything you wanted to via writing a special
interface script which allowed for selecting on many options and then
having an action field in which you indicated what you wished to do with
the message.  I used it there and loved it - but I suspect there are several
good pgms available in the world which provide similar capabilities.
