You can probably do what you want with procmail, but you did not give enough information.

Where is the email stored? How will it get to you? You may need to setup fetchmail and procmail if it is stored on another server.

In that case, use fetchmail to download them and procmail to parse into separate boxes. Keep in mind that not all mail is labeled to the recipient, in that case, you will need to drop it to a default box.
