With the new code there are some issues with IMAP accounts too. I have
a bunch of IMAP subfolders that I keep open all the time (and therefore  
are opened on start too) and some subfolders I open only occasionally  
(and usually are not opened on start).

Previous versions (up to 2.3.0 IIRC) showed no statistics related to  
the unopened subfolders. So it was easy to see the real statistics for  
opened folders and which were the folders not opened yet. Now I'm all  
the time confused about which subfolders are opened and show the real  
statistics and which are closed and show the statistics for the last  
connection.

Is there any option to revert to the previous behavior? Or is this a  
feature I don't understand? I see the gain with the new behavior  
(cached statistics) but that is out-weighted by the problems of  
differentiating between real and cached statistics (showing tabs for  
open mailboxes won't cut it, as I open a lot of tabs).
