Here is the screenshot of all labels (default settings):
After we hide some labels:
1. Launch WLM 2011 and log into your account.
2. Go to Accounts->IMAP folders or you can right click on your account on the left sidebar and choose Show or hide folders…
or
3. In Show/Hide IMAP Folders window, choose your account on the left side, choose the label you want to hide and hit Hide. Finally, click OK to close the window.
