Which one are you interested in?  The first one?  (Accessing an IMAP mailstore
via nmh?)  I have some ideas there.

The second one, I'm not sure that's within the scope of nmh, but I
believe that UW-imap has the ability to serve up MH mailboxes; if
you ran one of those servers on your laptop, that could work.  The
details might be tricky, though.  Mike, would that do what you want?
Or if you want nmh to help out with that, what did you have in mind?
