OK - they are in the result from the LIST output:

,----
| ...
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." "RMKrugGMAIL.[Gmail].All Mail".
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.[Gmail].Bin.
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.[Gmail].Drafts.
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.[Gmail].Important.
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.[Gmail].Sent.
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." "RMKrugGMAIL.[Gmail].Sent Mail".
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.[Gmail].Spam.
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.[Gmail].Starred.
| * LIST (%HasChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.[Mailbox].
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.[Mailbox].Later.
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." "RMKrugGMAIL.[Mailbox].To Buy".
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." "RMKrugGMAIL.[Mailbox].To Download".
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." "RMKrugGMAIL.[Mailbox].To Follow".
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." "RMKrugGMAIL.[Mailbox].To Read".
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." "RMKrugGMAIL.[Mailbox].To Watch".
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." "RMKrugGMAIL.[Mailbox].Wait For Feedback".
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.Emacs-macosx.
| * LIST (%HasNoChildren) "." RMKrugGMAIL.INBOX.
| ...
`----

But the line with the '.Later' folder is not iterated through in the
while loop.

> Are you using dovecot or what?

Yes - I am using dovecot via the following definition:

,----
| (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods          
|              '(nnimap "Maildir"
|                       (nnimap-stream shell)
|                       (nnimap-shell-program "/usr/local/opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap -o mail_location=maildir:$HOME/Maildir")))
`----

But as the LIST command returns the folder, the problem is likely in the
(while ...) loop.

When I do search-forward in the buffer itself, it stops as expected in
each line.
