Quoting Nathaniel Baughman <[email protected]>:

a) On http://www.horde.org/apps/webmail, the bullet "Fetching of messages from
external email accounts" is crossed off. This sounds like the very feature I
need. Can someone please clarify why this is crossed off?

It was removed in IMP 5 - it was buggy and a resource hog at best. Nobody to this point has stepped forward to fund development into adding this back properly: http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/?id=8077

b) Instead of leaving my email on all the remote IMAP/POP3 servers, I would like
to collect (that is, fetch and remove remotely) all my mail from those remote
servers and store them locally (on the local server/db). I still need to be able
to send mail as each of my remote identities.

A webmail client is **not** the preferred method of performing this for various reasons (in fact, this is how the old fetching code work that was removed). You really need to be doing this via a tool specially designed for this kind of activity, like fetchmail (or one of its spiritual descendants) run from a cron script.
