IMAP filtering/manipulation tools

I'm looking for a tool that I can use to look at the content of my INBOX
on an IMAP server and selectively forward certain messages (based on
snder name for example) off to somewhere else.

I think the imapfilter package may be able to do this, but it seems more
designed for moving messages around folders rather than forwarding.

I have no control over the IMAP server the mail is delivered to, so I
cannot deploy procmail or similar on this server. I'd like to avoid
client side rules as that would mean messages would not get forwarded
while I am away or not using the client.

Any ideas anyone?

Regards,
Tony.
