I believe MailSteward supports watching a folder on disk for new 
messages (which are then imported and deleted). This can be used 
together with the “Export to Folder” action available in the 
experimental rules feature in MailMate. In other words, it should be 
possible to do as follows in MailMate:

* Create an IMAP mailbox in MailMate which could be named MailSteward.
* Add a rule to the MailSteward mailbox. The rule should just have an 
“Export to Folder” action (which is then applied to all messages 
added to the mailbox).
* Make MailSteward watch the same folder.

Optionally, add an action to also move the message to “Deleted 
Messages” if the messages should be deleted in MailMate.

Remember to enable 2.0 features in the General preferences pane to make 
rules available.

I have not tested the above.
