Indeed.  I would recomend not ruling out procmail, maildrop, Mail::Audit,
or any other delivery agent.

% How can you redirect the emails from $MAIL to ~/Mail/Inbox?

This is treading dangerously close to procmail-list topic :-) but
something like

  DEFAULT=$HOME/Mail/Inbox

in your procmailrc would do it for you.  Of course, you might actually
put in some other settings and rules, too :-)  Read the procmailrc man
page for much more info.
