It's not, if you want things getting done when mail arrives, as is
usually done with mail robots or vacation programs.  In Both Gnus and
procmail, you can execute code when (certain types of) mail arrives.
Obviously, procmail is much better suited for tasks of that kind.

For this reason, I use two layers of mail filtering; one
procmail-based, for the stuff that needs to get done as soon as the
mail arrives, and one Gnus-based for normal mailing-list splitting.
