[mew-int 2258] Dealing with a list of IMAP folders

Hello.  I posted the following message around 49 weeks ago, and I'm
reposting it now because I didn't see any replies (I confess that I
forgot about this message for a long time, and only rediscovered it
now).  I'm wondering if any of you might be able to help answer the
question that I posed in my message.  Thank you very much in advance.

My earlier post:

My IMAP setup is structured in the following manner:

  INBOX         (empty ... just a root to the folder tree)
  INBOX.user1   (messages from user1)
  INBOX.user2   (messages from user2)
  INBOX.user3   (messages from user3)
  ... etc. ...

When I start up mew, it points me to the %inbox folder, which corresponds to
"INBOX", above.  I know that I can type the `g' command and the subfolder
name in order to view messages in a specific subfolder (for example, I know
that I can type "g" followed by "%user1" to view messages in the "INBOX.user1"
folder).

Is there any way that I can cause the entire folder list to appear in
an emacs buffer, followed by the total number messages and the number of
unread messages?

For my setup, I'd like to see something similar to this:

  %inbox            0     0
  %user1          123     2
  %user2           47     1
  %user3           12     0
  ... etc. ...

Also, I'd like to be able to navigate up and down this list and to select
a given folder, at which time I end up in its summary list (as if I typed
"g" + "%" + folder-name).

Is this possible somehow?

Thanks in advance.
