That does show a list of all my folders.  However, when I try to subscribe to 
one, I get the message, e.g.
Cannot subscribe to folder `INBOX/pol': Invalid mailbox name
I'm guessing that the problem is the separator, since my server wants names 
like INBOX.pol.  However, I don't see any way to change the separator.

While trying to get this to work I unsubscribed to everything.  That operation 
seems to have taken, so now I see my INBOX only, with no subfolders, in the 
left hand pane of the main window.

I'm a little surprised I was able to get this far, since I thought earlier I 
had tried the subscriptions and got a "server doesn't support this" error.
