That's the version I tried.  As far as I can tell, it still calls out to
cp:

imap4d/testsuite/lib/imap4d.exp:

...
    if {$reuse_spool == 0} {
        mu_prepare_spools
        set output [remote_exec host \
                         "cp $MU_SPOOL_DIR/teaparty.mbox $MU_SPOOL_DIR/INBOX"]
        if [lindex $output 0] {
                perror "Cannot create $MU_SPOOL_DIR/INBOX: [lindex $output 1]"
                exit 1
        }
...
