Use a program called "procmail".  I believe it's pre-installed on RaQx, not sure
about Qubes.  Plenty of tutorials online - search google.com.  Here are two I
have handy.  I use procmail for autoresponders, file servers, mail routing, etc.
You name it, it can probably do it and it can definitely do what you want.
