(mh-folder-list): Fix problem with passing in a folder and getting nothing back. Fix problem with passing in empty string and getting the entire filesystem (or infinite loop). Don't append slash to folder. These fixes fix problems observed with the pick search. Thanks to Thomas Baumann for the help (closes SF #1435381).
