Thanks, Wireshark seems to have revealed gmx server bug.

KMail, as shown by wireshark, uses different commands to list folders and to 
actually check mail. 'list "" "*"' for the first and 'list "" "%"' recursively 
for the second. Now, this is how imap.gmx.fr responses:

1 list "" "%"
* LIST () "/" "INBOX"
* LIST (\Noinferiors) "/" "Drafts"
* LIST (\Noinferiors) "/" "Sent"
* LIST (\Noinferiors) "/" "Spam"
* LIST () "/" "Trash"
1 OK Completed

It ignores MailCollect! I'll contact GMX support anytime soon.
