Making local archive of IMAP folder structure

        Is there any way to make a local mailbox folder system of some
kind which can have a folder structure like I have on my IMAP server?
I want to be able to archive my old mail locally, but I have a
customized folder structure on the IMAP server and I'd like to preserve
that in the local copy.  (It would be really convenient if I could just,
say, right click on the root of the IMAP folder tree and say "Make a
local copy of everything in here.")  A local mailbox file doesn't seem to
allow subfolders.

        Also, it seems that creating subfolders in general is kind of weird.
I am totally unable to create a folder which I can delete.  If I create
one, then try to delete, I always get the "failed to physically delete
folder" message.
