You are confused. procmail knows nothing about POP or IMAP,
that is the job or your mailserver. Most mailserver software
(courier, uw- imap) include both POP3 and IMAP services, though
the POP3 may (properly) be disabled by default.
True. However, we can add for the OP that it's trivial to
clone the message with procmail and create a maildir-style copy
and an mbox-style copy.
More interesting to me was this experiment:
:0
foo/ bar
Neither folder or dir existed before. Here's what happened when
I ran a handy spam message ($SPAMPLE) through that:
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=foo/new/1117803795.5513_0.panix5.panix.com"
procmail: Linking to "bar/msg.Jw5J"

Folder: foo/new/1117803795.5513_0.panix5.panix.com bar/msg.Jw5J 1624
In other words, the "bar" one is a legacy-procmail-style dir that was
created for me. This interests me, because If I just write
:0
bar
of course, no directory "bar" will be created; we'll save directly to a flat
"Berkeley-style" mbox file. (And we'll have wished we'd used a lockfile.)
Otoh, if I stick a file (not dir) called "bar" int here before the run, I get
this:
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=foo/new/1117804198.29232_0.panix5.panix.com"
procmail: Unable to treat as directory "bar"
procmail: Skipped "bar"

Okay, that's all an aside, but intriguing nonetheless. Perhaps the OP
wants:
:0 c
foo/
:0:
bar
