Exim and filters, how do you get them working with cPanel?

A client of mine has come to me with an issue, and I would like to know if
there is a known solution to this problem before turning him away.

He has just migrated his email from his local IMAP solution to my cPanel
server, and wishes to have mail filtering - ie/ a .forward file in his home
directory that filters mail into the IMAP folders.

The file is of standard exim format -

if $header_subject: contains "[Acx100-users]"
then
save /home/client/mail/.Lists.ACX100/
else save /home/client/mail/
endif

He says he has tried removing the /home/client/ part of the line.

I have tried adding this file in place of /etc/vfilters/client.com and the same
happens - no mail arrives.

He says that client-side mail filtering will not work for him as he has
multiple login locations.

Ideas?
