I don't think so. listSubscribed is for listing folders/newsgroup  
that we know exists (from newsrc file) from a previous listing or  
session.

What I want is to get the list of newsgroup in real time so the user  
does not wait 10 minutes before being able to browse the list of  
groups available on a server,
and starting making up a list of groups to subscribe to.
