mddeliver - deliver a message to a Maildir with optional flags
Mail filtering tools such as maildrop(1) provide an effective way to determine which mailbox a message should be delivered to, but provide no way to automatically process that message once delivered.
For example, it may be desirable to automatically set all spam messages to be "seen" so that they don't appear in an unread message count.
mddeliver is a simple Perl script which accepts an RFC2822-formatted message
on its standard input, delivers it to a given Maildir directory, and then sets
the status of the message according to the arguments provided.
