 Unfortunately, you can't. Well, sometimes you may have the mail server name in its first reply:
 
 
 
| Code: 
 
    
    | 
      
       | * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot ready. |  |  |  
 but this string is completely customizable and you cannot actually rely on it.
 
 Regards,
 Alex
