Thanks!  The list archives are the other place to check, though I don't
see anything there right off that deals with your issue:

Hmmm... I hope you have a high-performance IMAP server, or a small number
of users.  This will load your IMAP server pretty heavily.

Yes, I believe that's correct; I don't think 2.2.x has any way of doing
what you want here.

On the big blue bar at the top, there's a little icon (subtle, I know)
with two arrows making a circle, that will refresh the view of the current
folder.  Also, for INBOX, you can just click the INBOX link on the left
bar.  So that's at least only one click rather than two.
