Testing with my local Postfix/Dovecot mail stack (so, mainstream IMAP protocol, no GMail surprises). Works very well.
One strange thing: I have a space in my folder name. For mail.select() to work, I had to put the folder's name inside quotes in the new preferences panel.

Maybe calling EmailPassDialog directly in get_urls_from_imap's parameters? Sure, the user would have to reenter his password each time they click the menu, but I don't think the function would be used at such a frequency that it would be a hassle.
I haven't tested it, mind.
Perhaps even ask the user: "You have tried to retrieve your mail three times in less than three minutes. Do you want me to remember your password until you restart Calibre? Y/N (Warning: this can be a security risk)". Or something like that.
