Yes, they do pretty much say that, but I'm not convinced that their interpretation of the RFCs is correct. The latter say that the server can do what it likes as long as it informs the client (via the NAMESPACE extension). They don't say the client has to be able to present the folder hierarchy in a different way from the server's preference. > It works on Mail.app if you add the prefix INBOX to the inbox listing. > Is there a way for me to do that with evolution? Well, 'Preferences->Mail Accounts-><account>->Receiving Options' has an option called 'Override Server-supplied Folder Namespace'. You might try playing with that. poc > On Tue, 2006-04-11 at 17:50 -0400, Patrick O'Callaghan wrote: > > On Tue, 2006-04-11 at 13:04 -0700, Alex Laughlin wrote: > > > I've got an imap server running courier and Evolution is having some > > > trouble properly displaying the folders on this server.
