Re: Apple Mail behaviour: can not create sub-folders

The user stated that it behaved "normally" before where folders and mailboxes were handled without fuss. Thunderbird also has a setting which hints the client as to whether whether Maildir or MBOX was being used by forbidding creating mailboxes that also contained other mailboxes. I guess I'm asking whether the Apple mail client now has a similar control or it's up to the user to figure it all out. Joseph Tam
