That's interesting. When I set this option, the UI allows me to create the folder. It also provides a good drop icon when dragging messages over folders (which I would expect) ... it doesn't allow the drop there, though (which I would also expect ;-). This seems like a reasonable work around. However, when I attempt to delete a folder, it asks if I'm sure I want to send the selected folder to the trash, and then I get an error from the IMAP server that says: The current command did not succeed. Th email server responded: RENAME failed: Can't create mailbox node <path to mailboxes>/Trash: File exists. If seems the "delete" of the folder is being treated as a "rename folder to 'Trash'". I do have the options set for "When I delete a message, move it to the Trash folder". However, this shouldn't affect the removal of folders themselves. The UI should warn that the folder will be permanently deleted, then ... plughh. Thanks for your help,
