No, that's what I'm currently doing; I pull all my mail in with fetchmail
over an ssh tunnel.

Exmh sits on top of a bunch of other components, including nmh, expect, 
glimpse, xfaces, gnupg, openldap, etc. I don't even remember all the
customizations I've made to it over the years. 

Moving to a different MUA would be a pain, and running it remotely when 
I'm on the road is uncomfortably sluggish. It seems to me it would be
better if I ran exmh locally on my laptop and had it access my mailbox
through an ssh tunnel, without the syncing problems I'd have if I tried
to maintain two separate local mailboxes.
