Here is my procmailrc on the ISP end.  This is where all my mail is
centrally collected via fetchmail from my various accounts, it is spam
filtered and delivered to my inbox, /dev/null, or a folder called spam
depending on the rules.

I then use another fetchmail and procmail on my home pc to get it from my
ISP shell account and filter it to my specific folders.

Here is my home PC's fetchmailrc:

set daemon 600
poll pohaku.hi.net
protocol imap
preauth ssh
plugin "ssh -i /home/frank/.ssh/id_rsa yuser at xxhaku.hi.net /usr/sbin/imapd"
fetchall
no keep

I gather my mail from my ISP with IMAP wrapped in SSH.  That way all of my
mail is encrypted and my password is not sent in the clear every 10 minutes.
This part took me the longest to get working correctly.

I am sure my procmail filters are not the most efficient and I could
probably state them in 20 different methods but they work as I need and I
can easily go back and add and subtract as required.  I hoping this thread
turns good so I can get more ideas.
I added some xx's in my addresses here to protect myself from getting even
further spammed..
