Thanks !

From your input, I had figured out couple of other ways to display the
folders.

ls -F | grep /
To display just the folder names

ls -lF | grep /
To display the folder names along with the other information like:
drwx------ 4 u956121 ezdev 512 Nov 15 2005 Mail/
drwxrwxrwx 2 u956121 ezdev 512 Jun 2 13:19 bin/
