Unhappy Diablo Email: No inbox, no folders, no messages!

I just flashed my N810 to the latest Diablo (5.2008.43-7). All seemed to go well, but when I set up a basic IMAP account with the built-in email client, there's no inbox! It accepts the account...

My hope was also for a desktop applet, but I still haven't been able to get anything working.
