If you specify your goals as:

        (1) You don't have a login on the mail server, and so can't
            filter at delivery with procmail/maildrop/mailagent/...;
        (2) You only access the email via POP or IMAP; and
        (3) You don't want to download the email and keep it on the
            client with e.g. fetchmail feeding procmail (perhaps via
            local MTA);

then you have specified goals that can only be achieved via some
really revolting solution involving downloading the mail and
filtering it and then re-uploading it.
