Just in case if you have a lot of sub-folders (including nested ones) inside your directory and you want to print the subject of all then use this method.

folder = account.root/'Top of Information Store'/'Inbox'/folder_name
all_folders = folder.glob('**/*')
for subfolders in all_folders:
    for emails in subfolders.all():
        print(emails.subject)

You need to get hold of the Folder instance for myfolder first:

my_folder = account.inbox / 'myfolder'
for i in my_folder.all():
    print(i.subject)
