Sendmail is for *sending* only, IMAP is for *retrieving* mails (and
managing them on the server). You will need a SMTP server anyways.

This are cached mails only, AFAIK. As this is an IMAP account, the
actual mails are located at your IMAP server.

Those are for *local* mails only. You will not see files like them in
your IMAP cache directories.
