You are correct.  

But your example will create a loop....

Perhaps you need a second imap account and forward unhandled (?) mail
there, but I don't see that as a solution to your question.  I believe
that your only solution is to retain internet access and access the mail
on your imap server or dl all to your own box and ssh into it to handle
mail (this is what I do).  I carry putty on a stick and can access my
home box from nearly anywhere using my own laptop or someone else's
windoz box.

gud luk,
