mswatch automatically detects the list of mailboxes and can use mbsync
to synchronize them. http://mswatch.sourceforge.net/

mswatch is designed for somewhat different purpose, keeping two hosts in
sync, but supports occasional syncs, too. If you can't run mswatch on
the remote host, for your purposes that'll be just fine.
