how does INBOX play into that? is there actually an inbox you want to
sync separately?

assuming there is none, the solution is fairly simple:

MaildirStore pichon_loc
#Path is not needed
Inbox "~/Maildir"
AltMap no
Flatten .

Channel username
Master :username_rem:
Slave :username_loc:
Patterns INBOX*

if you actually need an INBOX, the config would look like that:

MaildirStore pichon_loc
# note the lack of a trailing slash!
Path "~/Maildir"
# being outside Path, this one cannot have subfolders due to flattening.
Inbox "~/INBOX"
AltMap no
Flatten .

Channel username
Master :username_rem:
Slave :username_loc:
Patterns * INBOX

there is a tiny problem with this: i don't think it will actually work.
