Hi,

According to your description, I understand that get an warning with IMAP is unhealthy, and run Invoke-MonitoringProbe get an error No mailboxes were found to use in the CTP probe.
If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.

This issue may be issued on CAS servers.
Please try below steps to troubleshooting your question:
1. Restart the Exchange IMAP4 service on the backend server.
2. Run below command to turn on IMAP protocol logging to help resolve issue:
   a. Enable logging: Set-ImapSettings -server <CAS server name> -ProtocolLoggingEnabled $true
   b. Get the location of log file and mailbox server: Get-ImapSettings -server <CAS server name>
   c. Check IMAP service in Mailbox server: Get-ServerHealth mailbox1.contoso.com | ?{$_.HealtSetName -like "IMAP*"}
3. If the Mailbox server is reported as healthy, restart the CAS.
4. After restart CAS server, restart IMAP service and disable protocol logging.
