You might want to look into the Seive filtering in the latest version
of Cyrus. I think the code is fairly well separated from the main
Cyrus code; so it shouldn't be too hard to extract it and slip the seive
pass in front of your current delivery mechanism. (If your webmail
system is IMAP or POP based; you might want to look into just switching
to Cyrus mailboxes. Cyrus works very will with exim, runs as a non-privileged
user, and seems to be pretty well written code.)
