AFAIK the Maildir hierarchy should appear as a real hierarchy of folders when seen from the client machine, i.e. folder, folder/subfolder, folder/subfolder/subsubfolder etc. From your description, it doesn't sound like that's what's happening, so the problem may be the way the CIFS filesystem is being accessed from your machine. > Can Evolution recognize dot hierarchy separator ? Not really relevant. Evo just uses the native filesystem hierarchy. It should never see "separators" in local folder names (including those of remotely mounted folders). Accessing a mail server with the IMAP protocol will show dots as separators, since that's how IMAP works by default, but that's a different matter. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
