Well, I did try other servers and e.g. on scalix I'm getting this:

* LIST (\X-DirectRef=000d7f94a4731510 \X-ModDate=20100814200222) "/" "six\"wafer"

I cannot find anything relevant in RFC3501

at least Thunderbird will go totally crazy when getting this kind response. (My old python scripts
expecting string, not a tuple go crazy as well... :-< )
