Yes. Go in your C-u <ret> over your Inbox to get a summary buffer with
all mails, M P a to process mark all, B c nnimap+yourserver:Inbox <ret>
This will copy all mails to Folder Inbox on your Imap-Server. Be
prepared for waiting quite some time until it's finished.

Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider
that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough
space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize
this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
