What, you mean aside from SpamAssassin & procmail?

I've always felt it was easiest to just filter everything on the mail  
server, and not bother with whatever filtering abilities the mail  
client I'm using this month may or may not offer.

But then, I suppose this isn't a viable approach if you can't run  
software on the server.

If you can get off the ground at all in filtering with AppleScript,  
its fairly easy to just write '...do shell script...' and switch to  
Bash / Perl / etc from there. That may be a good approach here.

That or fetchmail piping into local SpamAssassin/procmail/etc filters,  
but oh look I'm getting silly again.
