Comment:

 This looks like a combination of misconfiguration and server issues. If
 you examine your subscription list, it's very messy:
 {{{
 a0004 LSUB "" "*"
 6< * LSUB () "/" Trash
 6< * LSUB () "/" Sent
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" Drafts
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" Junk
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" archive/
 6< * LSUB () "/" archive/2006
 6< * LSUB () "/" archive/2007
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB () "/" archive/2008
 6< * LSUB () "/" folder/folder/folder
 6< * LSUB (\NoInferiors) NIL INBOX
 }}}
 That would take ages to poll in the best of cases, and your server is
 issuing that message you'r complaining about after it checks almost every
 one of these:
 {{{
 6< * STATUS Trash (MESSAGES 2541 RECENT 10 UNSEEN 801 UIDNEXT 120367
 UIDVALIDITY 1141205637)
 6< * NO Checkpoint ignored on readonly mailbox
 6< * STATUS Sent (MESSAGES 6705 RECENT 0 UNSEEN 0 UIDNEXT 6706 UIDVALIDITY
 1141206517)
 6< * NO Checkpoint ignored on readonly mailbox
 }}}
 etc

 You could try unsetting $imap_servernoise and/or reducing $sleep_time to
 0, but the root cause is a bad subscription list and a flaky server. You
 can also unsubscribe from a lot of those mailboxes in mutt: enter the
 folder browser (c?), then toggle-subscribed (T), and unsubscribe the bogus
 entries (u).

 Good luck! I'm closing this because I don't believe it's a mutt bug.
