There IS still something seriously wrong with folder creation. Just yesterday (0908
snap) I created a new folder via the folder creation dialog, and tried
via Ctrl-Shift-M to move a bunch of messages into that folder. It claimed the folder
(filesystem path) did not exist. I clicked on the new folder, and
upon opening it (well, attempting to), Evo claimed the folder did not exist. At this
point I verified through a terminal that the path did exist, though I'm
not sure it did before I tried to access it.
If I remember correctly, upon clicking away the error dialog, clicking to another
folder and then back to the new folder, the error message did not
appear and then I was able to move messages into that folder. I did not have to
restart Evolution.
I had seen this error since early August so I did not bother checking the status of
any bug reports which I am sure are already there.
