Might I suggest isync?

Description: Synchronize a local maildir with a remote IMAP4 mailbox
 A command line application which synchronizes a local maildir-style
 mailbox with a remote IMAP4 mailbox, suitable for use in
 IMAP-disconnected mode. Multiple copies of the remote IMAP4 mailbox
 can be maintained, and all flags are synchronized.
 .
 Features:
  * Fast mode for fetching new mail only
  * Supports imaps: (port 993) TLS/SSL connections
  * Supports STARTTLS (RFC2595) for confidentiality
  * Supports NAMESPACE (RFC2342)
  * Supports CRAM-MD5 (RFC2095) for authentication

I read my mail on any of three laptops (which might be disconnected from the
net for long periods of time) or on the mail server itself.  No matter where I
do so, every change I make to a mailbox is mirrored to all of the other
machines automatically with isync. If I read mail in two different places
before syncing either up, it will do a perfect three way merge of my changes.
It's wonderful.
