My CentOS box is my mail server. It uses procmail as the delivery agent, so 
it honors the .procmailrc filter in every user's home directory. I use that 
to pre-deliver list mail to list-specific folders in my ~/mail hierarchy 
(~/Maildir if you use Maildir format) and then read the result with the 
Mulberry mail client and Dovecot as the IMAP server.

It should be straightforward to add additional filter rules to .procmailrc 
to either remove mail from selected senders or add flags that your email 
client would understand to hide or highlight. (I set the "important" flag 
to highlight messages from project administrators and messages that contain 
my address in the references headers (ie. replies to me).
