I backup my Documents folder, which includes all mail folders, to an
external firewire drive. Now, IMAP folders are on the server. Do they get
backed up to the firewire drive?

Not really, but your ISP should be taking care of the IMAP server backups.
Anything that you have read is in the local cache, which would get backed
up... but that's the grate thing about IMAP - it's stored elsewhere so not
only is it available from anywhere, it's safer.
