$imap_checkinterval was removed in recent 1.3.x releases. Here's the
section the original patch from Brendan:

+- $imap_checkinterval has been retired. You use $mail_check to control
+  how often your mailboxes are polled. Note that the default setting of
+  $mail_check (5 seconds) makes mutt sluggish if you have more than a
+  couple of IMAP mailboxes defined. Also note that mutt polls the current
+  IMAP mailbox for new mail no more often than $timeout seconds, and its
+  default may also surprise you.

It's a little briefer in the actual NEWS file (which this was meant
to patch). Basically, it was determined that $imap_checkinterval and
$mail_check were redundant, so we dropped the special imap one.
