Odd...  I did a make update and how the MailboxExists works fine.  
However, it works just as the docs say: add 101 to priority if the box 
*does* exist, add 1 if not.  I have tested it and this seems to be how 
it works.  You may wish to test your flow and make sure it works as you 
think it does.
