I've been much tempted to do something like this, for SPAM filtering, but
feel a bit torn out.  Doing from Gnus would be comfortable, as it offers
a lot of flexibility and configurability, but it would be really slow.
Doing it through `procmail' is faster and a little less apparent for the
user, since done off-line with reading, but the last time I tried it,
receiving a lot of messages at once was burning a notable part of the CPU,
for a very notable time.  I'm thinking about writing a Flex filter knowing
many rules, this should be as speedy as anyone could get, but we are rather
far from Gnus.
