I'm not sure about the "similar to IMAP" part, but I believe what you're asking for could be accomplished by setting the account up as a POP3 account in your client, rather than IMAP. Although, generally speaking, that would only allow download from the Inbox of the account. You would also have to set up the client so as NOT to ever delete messages from the account server, which as far as I know can be done with all/most clients, although offhand I wouldn't be able to tell you where to find that setting in Outlook, never having used that client myself.
