I failed to follow, probably because I don't know enough details about IMAP?! Anyhow, I got it running using: MaildirStore work-local Inbox ~/Maildir/.work Path ~/Maildir/.work. SubFolders Verbatim Flatten . The only beauty spot is that mbsync tells me: Maildir error: cannot open store '/home/user/Maildir/.work.' . After mkdir Maildir/.work. it works just fine. Is that what you intended? This doesn't seem to match "Forget about Path and use only Inbox", but Verbatim doesn't work without Path. Best regards Uwe
