YMMV, but updating the capability after authentication seems kosher:

"A server MAY send capabilities automatically, by using the
CAPABILITY response code in the initial PREAUTH or OK responses,
and by sending an updated CAPABILITY response code in the tagged
OK response as part of a successful authentication."

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-7.2.1

Note the "updated CAPABILITY response code".

On the other hand, the IMAP specification was never a model of clarity.
