What kind of filtering? mutt can do 'l' to view onluy matching articles
and I think with hooks you could also configure it to move some messages to
some folders.
automatic moving/copying of incoming mail to different folders is, however,
left to MDA which can do that better without need of having mail client
started and in the time mail is delivered (which means, your computer
won't have the job done when you read your mail -> it works faster)

Also, I don't think that filtering is in any way related to IMAP:
1. It can be done and used on local folders too
2. IMAP has (afaik) no support for such "filtering"
