I'm quite sure I don't understand what you want, nor your setup. Your
mail server is remote, right? You're accessing your mail via IMAP and
POP3 (when you pop do you delete off the server or keep them there?)

If I understand correctly you are unsatisfied with any of the free
synching tools and insist on using outlook, which it seems gets your
email via pop3. I don't know much about Outlook XP, but it would be
worth checking to see if it will do IMAP and is configurable. Assuming
it's not (and also assuming it can't grok mbox on the local filesystem),
then you need to set up your mail server to do the procmailing into
different folders instead of doing it on your home box. If I understand
correctly, POP3 will only retrieve what's in your 'inbox', and will
leave things sorted into folders (available via IMAP) alone.
