I don't think so. After I pull it down off my mail server, I still want
global access. I don't want to leave my mail on the server. I know that's
what imap does. Are you suggesting that I run an imap server on my local
machine too?

Actually yes. Not quite that many though. No one has a 'favorite', they just
don't like change. That's my finding anyway. That's why some people still
use pine. ;-)

(Infrastructure changes, not client ones, unless your client is a source of
spam, which is the case for Outlook)
