You can also do it on the client, but indirectly.
On Linux, you can use a tool to download email, like fetchmail. This
handles the mail to an MTA, this to a sorting tool, like procmail, which
calls spamassassin as a part of the process, then finally Alpine.
But you loose the immediacy of imap.

fetchmail can use imap's IDLE.
I use it to feed emails into exim, and see emails immediately
in a running alpine session.
xbiff watching the fetchmail log also shows new mails immediately.
If I remember correctly, it then only handles one account.
