Your IMAP server is browsing your entire network... not a good thing.

Perhaps you should check why is your IMAP server vending those files in

Most likely your IMAP server is not quiet configured as it should. Your 
best bet is to restrict ZOE to a specific IMAP mailbox by adding a path 
to your IMAP server host name, e.g.:

mail.host.com/Inbox
