I have been 'browsing IMAP folders' for quite a while now.
mailboxes ! `~/bin/imap_folder_list`
do like i do, and hack together a short perl script to recersivly list
your IMAP folders. :) now I just use `echo ~/mail/lists/*` since I
have moved back to saving everything on the local system. i couldn't
live without my procmail. :)
