I can't help you answer that question.  But I can share my setup.

I'm using the offlineimap client so sync my IMAP (Cyrus of course)  
accounts (2 in fact).

I then use mutt to read the maildir.

This way I use a normal IMAP client when I'm online (or have a fast  
connection).  When I'm offline or on 3G (or worse) I use the  
offlineimap tool to sync my mailbox now and then.

To me using offlineimap to sync my mailbox I much faster than doing  
IMAP over slow links.  It also gives me a backup of my mailbox very  
easily.
