this sounds like a new bug, there were some last minute changes to that code. it will only work if the folder itself is empty. might need to check the CAMEL_VERBOSE_DEBUG=1 log to see what its sending the server. some servers have different ideas about what are errors too ... also, i suggest you try courier or another imap server which allows parent dirs to contain messages. i'll look into it today perhaps, tho i tested this scenario. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
