I thinking of what you asking, well, maybe you can do that (event I find
that a little strange inside the procmailrc:

SHELL="/bin/bash"
SENDMAIL="/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -t"
LOGFILE="/var/log/procmail.log"
DEFAULT="$HOME/Maildir/"
MAILDIR="$HOME/Maildir/"
DELIVER="/usr/local/cyrus/deliver -d $LOGNAME"

# If it's for me
:0
* To: poweruser@\.*
$DEFAULT

# deliver to other user
:0 w
| $DELIVER

I didn't test it (I don't use procmail anymore)

Well as I know you cannot do that with sieve.

Well, I'm also in the exact situation than you, but I use mutt as main
E-Mail client. It's working very well thought imap (whatever the server
is), and you can also use offlineimap to synchronise a local copy of your
email. So you can use mutt online by connecting to your imap server and you
can also use offlineimap to get a local copy so you can access your email
when you're offline.

And yes mutt work well on very low bandwidth connection.

Regards.
