[imp] Hidden folders

if you are using pine and mbox-format mailboxes, then pine is directly 
accessing your directory structure.  IMP uses IMAP to communicate with 
the mail server.  Therefore, if IMAP is not reporting the existence of 
the folder, IMP can't do a thing about it (you most likely need to tell 
your IMAP server, if possible, to display hidden folders).
