How about using sieve rules? A nice plus is that if you ever move to self-hosted in the future, you can bring it with you.
I know at least Fastmail supports user-configured sieve. I don't have experience with Fastmail myself but in general mostly heard good things.

I've been using Sieve on Dovecot (Pidgeonhole) for years and it's great. Earlier I had Procmail, which is fine, too. The only disadvantage is that I'd need to login on my server to edit the rules, while Sieve is directly editable in email clients.
