No. And one of the first commands they typically do is LIST. So there are no good ways to solve this.
I suspected that.
Would it be possible to identify a client by the folders it tries to subscribe to?
You could, of course, have a list of folders to hide in a LIST command. Most clients would then try to create those folders (a request which is ignored) and the IMAP server had to redirect all further select requests. Something along the lines of:
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-ignore-aliases-in-list-or-create-command-and-redirect-select: sent-mail gesendet/i,gesendete nachrichten/i,sent\(-mail\)?/i trash trash/i,junk/i,geloeschte\ objekte/i
User interaction or server side configuration is fine if it takes place in a company, but its not feasible in an ISP environment.
A corporate environment doesn't need that kind of functionality. Just preconfigure all installed software to suit your company's needs.
