LSUB returns only your subscribed folders. In this case, INBOX isn't
in that list, I wonder if TB is having some kind of hang up over that?

Try doing this:

# telnet mailserver 143
A01 LOGIN "username" "password"
A02 SUBSCRIBE "INBOX"
A03 LOGOUT

Then login to TB, go to the folder management, and hit refresh. You
might want to cheat, and create a second account, as I've found the
"Refresh" link to be unreliable. I still have a folder in my listing
that I deleted and unsubscribed from about 3 weeks ago, and it still
won't update.

It might just be a way they're handling them. Some mail clients
disregard the LSUB list (subscribed list), and give you options to
display/hide folders independent of the IMAPs settings for that folder
(subscribed/unsubscribed).
