the following method selects a folder $imap->select($folder) When I trace the response from the server, it looks like this:

000E SELECT "INBOX"
* FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen)
* OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen \*)]  
* 3 EXISTS
* 0 RECENT
* OK [UIDVALIDITY 1030359672]  
* OK [UIDNEXT 191]  
000E OK [READ-WRITE] Completed

Now I want to use this in my program. The function returns a hash reference so I do the following:
%map_status=%{$imap->select("INBOX")};

This command works perfectly, but the PROBLEM is it does not contain the server response.
QUESTION: How do I extract the server response?
