If you mean listing ALL files including those contained in sub
directories if the server supports globbing you can issue a "STAT *"
command and receive the list of all files on the command channel in an
"ls -lR *"-like form.
Not tested:

>>> import ftplib
>>> f = ftplib.FTP()
>>> f.connect('ftpserver.domain', 21)
>>> f.login()
>>> f.sendcmd('STAT *')
an "ls -lR *" is expected to come
