Lots of mailboxes then, I assume. :-)

You can use `nnimap-list-pattern' to reduce the number of mailboxes to
list, but you'd need another imap client to find out which mailboxes
you aren't interested in.

I really should finish my new subscription buffer which would solve
this, the current server buffer loop over all mailboxes and EXAMINE
them, and that's likely to take a very long time to finish even on a
small (UWash-) server.
