The mailbox framework returns EPROBE_DIFFER to inform that the mailbox
provider has not registered yet. I do not expected to have a success
followed by a EPROBE_DEFER error.

But in the very special case where we use two different mailbox
providers this may happen.

I will send an updated version, thanks for pointing this.
