Good question, you get a descriptor which contains a list of object descriptors
which have properties to identify the mailboxes.

Well, I'll add new method description and print so you can learn what's inside
easier.

You can show list of mailboxes like this:
dim source as string = "tell application
""Mail"""+EndOfLine.Macintosh+"return mailboxes"+EndOfLine.Macintosh+"end tell"
dim n as new NSAppleScriptMBS(source)
dim d as Dictionary
dim result as NSAppleEventDescriptorMBS = n.execute(d)
if d<>nil then
MsgBox d.Value(NSAppleScriptMBS.NSAppleScriptErrorMessage)
else
dim count as integer = result.numberOfItems
dim names() as string
for i as integer = 1 to count
dim item as NSAppleEventDescriptorMBS = result.descriptorAtIndex(i)
dim value as NSAppleEventDescriptorMBS = item.descriptorForKeyword("seld")
list.addrow value.stringValue
next
end if
