No. What I wish and used to do is:
1. Login to hub periodically and inc my mails into ~/Mail/inbox.
2. Use pick and rmm to discard messages that are more than two weeks
or so old.
The reason why I don't use fetchmail or whatever from my local machine
to get these messages is that the connection can get very slow.
Cheers,
Max
