You are confusing protocol with client....

And yes I'd suggest fetchmail scripted to do this (given it is a one
off) so long as the email service your system is going to provide will
be storing in whatever the local user storage that fetchmail will be
dumping into... or even so long as you can parse the appropriate
.mailbox (or whatever) files and import them to your system.
