Yes. I'm accessing my mail via IMAP and POP (w/ pop set to not delete)

The problem lies in the syncing tools.  They will only sync from the
main inbox in outlook, which I can only get mail into through pop
servers.  It leaves anything sorted into the other folder alone just
fine, but I want to figure out how to autosort into the folders (so I
could use pine for example) after I've gotten a copy of the new mail to
download onto my palm.
