I set up a simple filter to copy everything coming into my imap account to a saved folder. Easy to do, but why have to do this? With pop, you don't. What is the advantage of iMap again?

I run my mail through Gmail. I setup the filters in Gmail and from Gmail

I use Acronis, scheduled daily, to backup my mail folders in Outlook (*.pst,
*.ost).

In Outlook 2013 IMAP is vastly improved and the file now ends in *.ost if
you're running Gmail.

Those things I want to more or less "permanently" save I save to the local
*.pst file in Outlook.

What I find to be a pain with imap is I have to copy my emails to another
local folder to save them, because if you delete them off the server they
are gone from your local machine.  I like to save emails on my main home and
work PCs.
