I have actually asked Mark Crispin (UW-IMAP author) regarding this and he 
claims that giving no \NoSelect flag in LSUB response does not mean the 
mailbox in question is SELECTable (as opposed to: returning \NoSelect 
means that mailbox cannot be SELECTed). So balsa has to go and either 
request flags using LIST or try selecting the mailbox (and then possibly 
change its status to non-selectable).

Still, I think my opinion about other mail programs is correct.
