Looks like correct logic fix but I wonder if this couldn't introduce
issues.

I didn't take a deep look at the code, so please tell me if I'm wrong.

readonly option is for read /only/ purpose. Old behavior would prevent
from folder creation if IMAP is marked as readonly. Is it still the case
with this patch?
