[mimp] Folder list new message indicator/counts

In the vein of "IMP is feature rich, but MIMP is not meant to be",  
couldn't we (I) just poll all displayed folders?

I agree that a UI to allow users to select which folders to poll would  
be "heavy", so I'd rather have all folders polled than none. But maybe  
that's just me?

Or how about a MIMP pref to either poll folders or not (with "all"  
folders being the only option)?

On a related note, I've never seen options in my MIMP menu (I've  
always had to log in to Horde on my desktop to set MIMP options). Are  
the options supposed to be available from the mobile device?

Thanks,
Rick
