Mutt (along with procmail) can do all of the things you describes.

Yes. Separating mail into different folders should almost always be handled at the MDA level. > have ability of address books with custom fields and ability to > import csv format address books Not directliy, you can whip up a quick script to to do this. > is it better to seperate address book from mail program? If you have a good reason to do so. Some people have a common file from which they generate address books for their mail client, PDA, etc. -- N.
