If your MUA is not so flexible, then you should see if your MTA is
configurable.  Most Unix system's support sendmail which is very
configurable, albeit obscurely.  It is not too difficult to modify
sendmail.cf to insert rewrite rules for outgoing addresses such that the
mail is filtered before being sent.  See the procmail distribution
"examples" directory for hints.

   I'm using sendmail 8.6.12 and I have procmail installed as my MDA 
in place of deliver. I have procmail installed according to the 
instructions (and I know it's working, because my .procmailrc file 
is working without a .forward). It's running on a Linux box. I use 
Eudora on my PC to write my mail, and it sends it to my Linux box 
with SMTP (sendmail). So, given that configuration, how do I get 
procmail to intercept the outgoing messages so I can process them?
