The only thing that such a test would be good for would be to determine if
the server does not comply with IMAP.  Courier is very non-compliant, and
you should always use the "/loser" flag in the host specification of the
mailbox name with a Courier server to avoid problems.

Use the mail_list() function which returns the mailbox attributes
including noselect and noinferiors state.
