do shared hosting or VPS versions allow user installed email filters?

Q

Do either (both?) of the shared web hosting or VPS versions of Plesk allow users to install qmail custom email filters?

In other words, does the user have access to their ".qmail" files?

I found this thread referencing "custom .qmail files", which implied that it was ok in at least one Plesk variant, unless other software conflicted (in that case, a certain antivirus package).

I'm inquiring for a friend who needs to change web hosts, and would like to find one who allows her to use a custom filter (a compiled binary). She does not need antivirus, and would be fine with the filter run globally.

If this is possible, I welcome and appreciate any Plesk shared host recommendations for her. Thanks in advance!
