Another nice program, available free to individuals, is Free Agent.
It's a very nice newsreader (its primary function) and also does a
super job on e-mail.  Free Agent:
 
-Allows you to create any number of folders; I use one inbox for
general mail; one called BeeList; one called recipes; one called
FlightMed; one called E-Med; etc.
 
-Select which filter in-bound mail will automatically be diverted to
 
-Spell check
 
-Reply to e-mail and newsgroups
 
-encode and decode binary e-mail attachments
 
-set up multiple signatures
 
-address book
 
-much, much,  more
 
If anyone is interested, I can 'coach' you, via e-mail, on setting up
filters.
 
It's available from - http://www.forteinc.com/agent
