Quick follow up on this: It turns out that Evolution has filters. And
for a filter, you can use the return value of a program that is fed
the email on stdin.

So, I have set up a filter in Evolution that filters my email through
"/usr/bin/procmail -d mylogin", and I've configured Gnus to get email
from /var/mail/mylogin.

This means that I have to run Evolution to get the email, but I don't
have to use it (and I don't have to re-implement their Exchange
connector thing, which looks like quite the nightmarish job) :-)

I've been using this for a week now, and it works well. There are some
details with names, parentheses and such in From, To and such, but
that is easy to handle in Gnus (obviusly).

Yehaw!
