Once I used mailsync to sync two MH mailboxes over ssh. It took me a
while and, if I remember correctly, even a bit of c-client patching. It
wasn't easy to make c-client access mailbox over ssh rather than imap
and I can't give you any walkthrough anymore (I'm using imap now). But I
can confirm this is possible.
