VM actually maintains a separate IMAP connection for each IMAP folder.  So,
there won't be any optimization which ever way you do it.  (Actually,
opening IMAP connections is not expensive at all.  If the server doesn't
like too many connections, it will close them, and VM will open new ones
whenever it needs to.)

I look forward to it!  I quite enjoy maintaining VM, but my time is
limited.  If there were more of us, we could do more.
