As Roger has already indicated Exim filters can do the job. These can
be text files or even queried from a database.

Otherwise an alternative IMAP server is Dovecot which has Sieve
support via a plugin (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve) which
can provide the filtering on messages as well.
