I don't think that's possible, either in Seamonkey or any other IMAP
client. IMAP's whole concept is based on the "real" mail folders being
the ones in your mailserver, and your client just keeping a local copy
(not guaranteed to be complete) for caching, that is, for performance
purposes -- if you want to open a message your mail program will first
attempt to find a local copy, and if it fails will attempt to download
it from the mailserver.

That is, IMAP mail folders are *always* remote. What you can do is to
set up a rule to move messages from the remote folders to your local
Inbox -- but that sort of nullifies the benefits of working with IMAP in
the first place.

Some clients (like Thunderbird, but not Seamonkey) offer a "blended
view" mode where you see messages from different inboxes in a single
listing -- but the messages are not actually moved to the same folder,
it's just the way the program presents the listing for the user.
