I've never used any of the two cyrus nor courier, but I don't think exim
filters would have any problem. Filters work for SMTP while the other
two are IMAP servers, SMTP is in charge of sending mail from MTA to MTA,
while IMAP is only responsable for storing users mailboxes. Filters will
work when a message arravives via SMTP, and then, if the filter says it
has to store or deliver the mail to the user, exim will pass to the IMAP
server, so I don't think you would have problems there
