Public bug reported:
How to reproduce the problem:
1) Open up evolution
2) Create a new account (or edit an old one)
3) Set the "Server Type" in the "Receiving Mail" tab to "Maildir-format mail
directories"
4) Try to select a path
The problem here is that the dialog box is broken and wants you to
select a regular file (not a directory). If you select a bogus regular
file, then edit the gconf key and replace the bogus file with the actual
maildir, everything works correctly.
** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
