Really all you can do is set the $folder variable to point to the root
of your IMAP folders:

set folder='{mailhost}Mail'

and this only works in the development versions, I think. The
development versions have all kinds of nice IMAP stuff vs the stable
version, actually:

* tab completion
* significant speed improvements
* server copy
* IMAP folder browsing

probably other things
