237/// ## `parentId` semantics
238///
239/// The `parentId` field has three distinct states that must be preserved:
240/// - **absent** (`None`) — do not filter by parent; return mailboxes at any level.
241/// - **`null`** (`Some(serde_json::Value::Null)`) — return only top-level mailboxes

243/// - **`"<id>"`** (`Some(serde_json::Value::String(...))`) — return only mailboxes
244///   whose `parentId` equals the given `Id`.
245///
246/// The combination of `#[serde(default, deserialize_with = ...)]` preserves
247/// this three-way distinction. Without the custom deserializer, serde's
248/// default `Option<T>` Deserialize impl would collapse a JSON `null` to
249/// `None`, making `null` and absent indistinguishable.
