I think he wants to access the mail on IMAP as opposed to download
mail from IMAP servers... fetchmail is not useful for that.

Kmail claims to support IMAP but when I set up IMAP server (with SSL)
it never connects, I just tried it yesterday (after reading mails in
this thread). Not sure what's the problem, it's my local IMAP server, I
use it with mutt and netscape (no problems). The other suggested client
was solpheed - that one doesn't seem to support SSL (and wasn't able to
connect to my local IMAP server as well).
