I don't know if there's a "ready to use" way of doing it.

What I would do is set up an IMAP proxy on server 0. This thing could
be written in Perl for all I care. Then do the magic, and proxy the
connection. Easier said than done, but nothing a day or two won't fix.
 :)

Of course if there's a ready solution then you don't need this band-aid.  :)
