Filing Mail in Arbitrary Folders

Hi, I have several years' worth of e-mail folders spread throughout my system (Sun Ultra running Solaris 9). Currently I use mozilla to pop mail over from my ISP. I read the mail and filter spam in mozilla, and then move the keeper messages to my inbox, /var/mail/rod. Then I use dtmail to respond (because it creates a record of the response in my home directory, but I can live with the record file buried in the mozilla hierachy under my home). I also use dtmail to file messages in the appropriate folder. While I have several folders pre-defined in dtamil, I use many others that aren't pre-defined; dtmail has a good interface for dynamically choosing those folders. This works well except that dtmail does not properly handle and display multipart messages. All I see is the header fields. I am told to use something other than dtmail, and was pointed to t-bird. Hence my previous question about mozilla wrt firebox and t-bird. My concern is that filing messages directly from mozilla or t-bird will require me to have all my folders in the mozilla hierarchy. And I am concerned that I will have to statically define all those folders to mozilla. Is there a simple way to move a message from my mozilla inbox to an arbitrary folder anywhere under my home directory? Can you point me to a cookbook description of how to do that? Thanks! Rod
