Just thought I'd follow up on my original post, I got the snarf plugin 
to work properly with some help from Jonathan at PSU (need to give 
credit where credit is due)

For anybody else looking for the configuration here is the relevant 
output from dovecot -n

# 2.1.10: //etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 3.6.2-1.fc16.x86_64 x86_64 Fedora release 16 (Verne) ext4
mail_location = mbox:/home/%u/mail:INBOX=/home/%u/mbox
mail_plugins = snarf zlib
namespace Snarf {
   hidden = yes
   list = no
   location = mbox:/home/%u/mbox:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u:INDEX=MEMORY
   prefix = ~~Snarfbox/
   separator = /
}
namespace default {
   inbox = yes
   location =
   prefix =
   separator = /
}

plugin {
     snarf = ~~Snarfbox/INBOX
}

What I found was I was specifying the snarf mbox location as ~/mbox, 
once I changed to /home/%u/mbox things started working.

Thanks,
Jeff
