  I use VM's pop support to do this.  Try:

(defun my-movemail (inbox crashbox)
  (require 'vm)
  (vm-spool-move-mail (getenv "MAIL") crashbox)
  (vm-pop-move-mail "milo.in.aventail.com:110:pass:wmperry:YYYYYYYY" crashbox)
  (vm-pop-move-mail "mail.cntwk.net:110:pass:wmperry:YYYYYYYY" crashbox)
  (vm-pop-move-mail "moose.cs.indiana.edu:110:pass:wmperry:ZZZZZZZZZZZ" crashbox))

(setq nnmail-movemail-program 'my-movemail)
