Ok, how about a widget similar to the search folder selection, which
lets you tick incoming folders for which you want to poll mail?

If you have a lot of folders though, it would make the Preferences menu
pretty bloated.

Hmm, actually - how about sectioning off the prefenences menu, instead
of just one large page?  That would make it somewhat more expandable.
