* NAMESPACE (("" "/")) NIL NIL
a OK Namespace completed (0.001 + 0.000 secs).

*a list "" "*"** LIST (\HasNoChildren \UnMarked) "/" FromL3
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \UnMarked) "/" Apple
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \UnMarked) "/" JunkMail
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Marked \Trash) "/" Trash
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \UnMarked \Drafts) "/" Drafts
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Marked) "/" SENT

** LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" virtual** LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" INBOX
a OK List completed (0.003 + 0.000 + 0.003 secs).

It's now hidden in the namepsace but I can still see it in the folder list,
is this expected?
