        What I mean is:

autonomous:  retrieves its own mail from its own mail-sources, uses its own
             split-methods.
traditional: don't retrieve mail (the primary backend does it). You've got to
             move the messages by hand from the primary backend to the desired
             group.

       Nope, I think. I don't use nnimap, but I've got to look at it.
