If you have a look into your .pinerc you will find the following passage
there:


--- snip ---
# List of directories where saved-message folders may be. First one is
# the default for Saves. Example: Main {host1}mail/[], Desktop mail\[]
# Syntax: optnl-label {optnl-imap-hostname}optnl-directory-path[]
folder-collections=Mail mail/[]
--- snap ---

Just edit it this way:

--- snip ---
# List of directories where saved-message folders may be. First one is
# the default for Saves. Example: Main {host1}mail/[], Desktop mail\[]
# Syntax: optnl-label {optnl-imap-hostname}optnl-directory-path[]
folder-collections=label {your.imap.server/novalidate-cert}INBOX.[],
        Mail mail/[]
--- snap ---

Then enable aggregate command set, so you can apply a command (delete,
move or whatever) to more than one mail. Each command option has a help
text available. Then move the mails from your local pine folders to the
new created folder collection. That's it.
