Not that I can see. They appear in the list, but selecting them opens
them up with all the mailboxes inside. It also still saw emails that
have arrived. 

Anyway, I went back to my previous one with the addition
of -prune. It's ~0.5s instead of the ~0.3s that that one came up with. I
can live with that difference. :)

Thanks for the tip.

Yeah, looks good, but I'm happy enough now. Cygwin managed mount
probably puts a lower limit on the time taken. I may have to revisit
this when I set my new machine up.
