I haven't seen it.. strange. I haven't experienced anything weird
today. What do the logs say?

I think this is easily missed.
In Thunderbird, for example, I click on an account for a menu and select
subscribe. The following results for me with no return on the 'list'
request. This is the 2.1 CVS build. CVS2.0 gets the same result.

If the email client already has a list of folders it will continue to
fetch the content, no problems, but upon recreation of the account,
selecting "subscribe" or "reselect list", or creating a new account,
dbmail-imap will not return the list of mailboxes.
This is not something you will run into if your email client account
correctly lists the folders which exist in the database, unless you
actually make a change or relist request following a current CVS build.
It would however be fatal to IMAP in a new installation because the
client would not have the folder list to poll.
Reinstalling dbmail-2.0rc8 (and switching back to the corresponding
dbmail.conf) fixes the problem instantly.
I have tried this on several operating systems. There is no change to
the database in any case and everything seems to function OK until a
list request is made.
best...
