Any number of ways exist to do what you want in Linux.  If you use pine,
under setup and rules you'll find filters and you want to add a filter.
Then name the filter and fill in your criteria.  Save it and exit and the
e-mail is gone.  There's procmail but it like sendmail is a major bitch in
terms of getting operational and you have to keep on adding filters to it.
I may go back to procmail though having used pine because procmail can
forward spam to different mailing addresses very easily once you get it
set up correctly.  mailfilter is another package that can do much the same
thing as well.
