Uh... well, I suppose you could do something like:
scp mybox.mydomain.com:/var/mail/myusername /var/mail/myusername
This would simply ``synchronize'' your inbox from your home server to
whatever machine you happen to be on (blowing away anything on your
local box in the process). If you want anything more complicated than
this, then install uw-imapd and stunnel.
