If you specify a directory (ending with a slash) you'll get a directory
listing back automaticly. There's no need to POSTQUOTE for that.

Also, as Cris pointed out, the POSTQUOTE function doesn't understand and deal
with LIST (or any other file-transferring command) so thus it'll always fail
unconditionally when used there.

Other options you can play around with is FTPLISTONLY that changes the list
command to NLST, or you can set CUSTOMREQUEST to a string of your own choice
if you have any special list-command you want to use.

Just be aware that the file list you'll get is highly server-specific and
there's no standard saying how it should look. You need to make a very clever
parser to make it work on most servers...

I hope this helps. If not, ask again!
