The option is good. But i explained the "sad" part: i want to change the
default behaviour. Instead of checking every possible folder in the
first time it is shown (including when the account is created and
folders it already has are all subscribe), i want to check just inbox,
trash and spam.

This is good! I created a root folder, without inheriting from parent
folder (does it have anything that is considered?). Then, i checked its
properties, it did not have the "check for new messages" option enabled
- as i wish, but not as i expected from Claws, given the default option
for existing folders being added/discovered-the-first-time. I created 2
subfolders for inbox (a folder that "checks for new messages"), one for
each option. It worked as expected, given the previous test.
