The problem may not be with optionMenu().  The following example works fine 
(for me).

  window = cmds.window()

cmds.columnLayout()

cmds.optionMenu( label='Colors', changeCommand=printNewMenuItem )

cmds.menuItem( label='Yellow.Blue' )

cmds.menuItem( label='Purple-Orange' )

cmds.showWindow( window )

How are you getting the list of folder names?  Can you include a short 
example of what you're doing?
