Just wanted to follow up. My temporary solution is to just use
offlineimap. I considered fetchmail + dovecot and davmail but
fetchmail had problems authenticating which prevented me from ever
getting to the dovecot aspect and davmail didn't support the imap
search calls correctly. Offlineimap is pretty much like fetchmail, but
it does seem to fail every so often which is frustrating. 

I'll keep trying to debug this though in some free time and keep an
eye our for any fixes folks publish here. 

Thanks again for all the help! I've tried VM, Mew and Gnus, none of
which hold a candle to wanderlust.
