"localonly" Mailbox?

[ms419 at freezone.co.uk]

Sorry for this disengaging question, but what is meant by a "localonly" 
mailbox? It is an option in some function calls (eg. 
mboxlist_createmailbox) but I can't find a description of its meaning, 
either in the source or through google.

Thanks very much,

Jack
