Direct from the link in question (eg Pine):

Note too that, even if this feature is enabled, Pine will not remove 
pseudo-messages when it encounters them (e.g. those created by UW's imapd or 
ipopd servers.) This feature has no effect on folders that are not in 
standard Unix or MMDF format, as pseudo-messages are not needed in the other 
formats to record mailbox state information.

Meaning if the pop or imap server is "putting" them there, then the "other" 
one will still see them.
