No.  I think you click menu to change folders.

The problem I had with my iTouch is that it does NOT check sub folders
so I had to write a perl program to send me notification to INBOX when a
customer emailed me.  Not pretty and clutters up INBOX but works well.

One feature that is really nice about the iOS email client is the 'All
Mailboxes' feature.  It will provide one interface to all INBOXes of all
accounts.  If you replied from that UI it would use the correct account.

Worked very well.

Of course now my iTouch is "old & busted" :)
