Hey Bron,

we had discussed this over IRC for a bit...

Since a NOOP can result in the server returning some untagged status 
information along with the OK Completed, but can also return "BAD" for 
'command unknown' or 'invalid arguments' types of errors, and liberally 
interpreting the selected folder having been purged as an invalid context 
(thus invalid argument?) this could be worked around, no?

Kind regards,

Jeroen van Meeuwen
