You can "download and remove" them by simply dragging and dropping them 
within Outlook Express from one of the subfolders within your IMAP account 
to any of your local folders. (You can do the same thing in Outlook, too, 
but this does not preserve all the headers). Once you have dragged the 
messages over to your local folders, they will be "marked as deleted" in 
your IMAP subfolder. You can then use the "purge delete messages" function 
(called simply "Purge" in OE) to remove them for good from your IMAP 
subfolder.

No, POP is an old protocol that does not understand the whole concept of 
folders and will only get the messages from your inbox.
