Okay, now that I have my DSL connection up and
running, I can get to the problem I _really_ wanted to
ask about! This may be a simple case of RTFM, but if
someone could point me in the right direction, I'd
appreciate it.

I use an email forwarding service, pobox.com. If
you're not familiar with it, pobox.com allows you to
use up to 5 email names. It will forward mail
addressed to those names to your "real" email account
with your ISP. I started using the service so that if
I had to change ISPs I wouldn't have to change email
addresses. This has worked beautifully. I have had to
change ISPs two or three times in the last few years,
but my email address remains the same. I simply have
pobox.com forward my mail to my current ISP. I have
aliases for my wife and for myself. This worked great
when I was a Win9x user. We just used the same mail
application.

But now, I'm migrating to Linux- Mandrake.My wife and
I now have separate mailboxes on the PC because we
have separate logins. I was wondering if there's some
way I can sort the mail so that mail addressed to my
wife goes to her mail reader (KMail), and mail
addressed to me goes to my reader (Evolution). I've
looked at the mail headers, and you can find the
pobox.com alias in it. There must be something I can
use that will sort the mail based on the alias being
mine or my wifes.

Thanks,
