Sylpheed

Based on the recommendations here, I decided to download it and give it a try. It certainly looks like a nice capable application, but it has an infuriating problem in its IMAP handling - it insists on reading EVERY mail folder on the server each time it fetches new mail (which takes a while), even though the only folder that ever contains anything new is the inbox. I couldn't find any way to get it to behave differently - any suggestions?
