The command is just

USERNAME with your unix user account name, all PASSWORD with the
password
for that IMAP account, all IMAPUSER with the IMAP username, all MAILHOST
with the IMAP serverhostname and finally all MBOXPATH your mbox (absolute)
filenames.
--- BEGIN CONFIG ---
set postmaster "USERNAME"
set bouncemail

poll MAILHOST with proto IMAP
user 'IMAPUSER' there with password 'PASSWORD' is 'USERNAME'

If I omit password 'PASSWORD' it will prompt?
options keep fetchall ssl mda "formail -c >>
/MBOXPATH/inbox"
folder INBOX
"formail -c >> /MBOXPATH/inbox"
is a shell command,
the target is a plain file which need not already exist?
what is the affect of
folder INBOX
?
poll MAILHOST with proto IMAP
user 'IMAPUSER' there with password 'PASSWORD' is 'USERNAME'
here
options keep fetchall ssl mda "formail -c >> /MBOXPATH/sent"
folder INBOX.Sent

It looks to me like this would do the same thing again
only with different targets on the client side.
