We just use fetchmail on the RT server.  Then I run things from
fetchmail through procmail so that I can filter out spam and such.  The
formail command allows me to keep the Queues seperate, but still only
have one RT user on the RT server. (all \ mean long wrapped line.  take
out if you copy/paste and move all to one line)


rtuser at trouble:~$ cat .fetchmailrc 
set logfile /home/rtuser/logs/fetchmail.log
#------------------------------------------------
poll smtp.example.com protocol pop3 and port 995

# Queue 1
   username rt at example.com password xxxxxx
   mda '/usr/bin/formail -f \
   -A "X-Original-Account: rt at example.com" | \
   /usr/bin/procmail -d rtuser'

   username rt-comment at example.com password xxxxxx
   mda '/usr/bin/formail -f \ 
   -A "X-Original-Account: rt-comment at example.com" | \
   /usr/bin/procmail -d rtuser'

# Queue 2
   username rt2 at example.com password yyyyyyy
   mda '/usr/bin/formail -f \
   -A "X-Original-Account: rt2 at example.com" |  \
   /usr/bin/procmail -d rtuser'

   username rt2-comments at example.com password yyyyyyyy
   mda '/usr/bin/formail -f \ 
   -A "X-Original-Account: rt2-comments at example.com" | \
   /usr/bin/procmail -d rtuser'


rtuser at trouble:~$ cat .procmailrc
