Hi Miles,
Take the latest uw-imap from EPEL:
ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5Client/SRPMS/
You may want to use mix mail folders by default. This does increase
performance substantially. The patch

would do the job. Be warned however that a different default mail folder
format (for new folders) has implications on your overall mail setup.
