Hiding from the user interface I assume.

Only if the client has such a way. The folder must stay with the client
in a cache if you want to use their functionality.
If you do not need them, you can either delete them 
or un-subscribe them on IMAP level.

You can use such a folder, if you like. Just create or move the folders there
(and make sure they have the right marking via annotations).
