Maybe this is caused by the intermittent problems with Sieve and older 
versions of Cyrus (cf. [1])? OTOH, this problem should be fixed in KDE 
3.5.10 which you seem to be using.

What happens if you click on "Check What the Server Supports" on the 
Security page of the settings dialog of the IMAP account? Is "Show only 
subscribed folders" or "Show only locally subscribed folders" checked?
