I use a simple shell script for this:

#!/bin/sh
MYINCTMP=`mhpath +MyIncTmp`

[ -e $MYINCTMP ] || mkdir -p $MYINCTMP
if inc +MyIncTmp -nochangecur -user username -host host
then
  for file in $(mhpath +MyIncTmp all)
  do
    /usr/local/libexec/slocal -verbose < $file
    test $? -eq 0 && rm $file
  done
fi

Haven't ever really  needed more. There are certainly  fancier tools for
filtering than slocal, but I control most of what I need by simply using
unique email addresses.
