That's what I'm doing.  I'm using fetchmail with MTA set to maildrop (build 
from srpm without problem on Fedora).

Maildrop will use my ~/.mailfilter:
DEFAULT="$HOME/Mail.imap/"

xfilter "/usr/bin/spamc"

This will filter mail through spamassassin, then put it in maildir format into 
above dir.

Then, use dovecot to serve.   In /etc/dovecot.conf, I set:
default_mail_env = maildir:~/Mail.imap
