Re: Repopulating IMAP folder

 The other day I ran into a problem: All IMAP folders that The Bat!
 was subscribed to were deleted from the server. I'm not positive
 that it was an error with The Bat! (although there really isn't any
 other explanation) but I want to repopulate the IMAP folder.

You might want to contact your provider to see if there was any issues
at their end.

 I have all the original messages still saved in The Bat! (I did full
 message synchronization) but synchronization is not copying the
 messages from The Bat! to the server. It won't let me export the
 messages, or copy them to other folders. The only thing that it
 appears to let me do is redirect the messages. I'd really rather not
 redirect every message, there are many hundred.

CTRL-A then redirect them, it'll pop up a multi-select box :) But
that's still a bit of work. Syncronization just tells TB how to store
related messages in the local cache. You might want to try going to
Tools, Export, MSG format, then save a couple of them, then reimport
them, see if that works.

 Is there someway that I can force The Bat! to copy mail from it's
 records onto the IMAP server?

Only from local folders to an IMAP server...

ooh... an idea... go into the MAIL\%ACCOUNT%\ (or wherever you have
the files) folder, copy the .tbb files to another location, create a
common folder, go to Tools, Import, From TBB Files, then select one of
those files... see if it pulls the emails back into the common folder.
If it does, then repeat for each folder, and then you should be able
to copy them onto the server.

Not entirely sure how well that'll work, but might be worth a test.

From my little experience with IMAP here, it would seem that if the
folders and mail have been deleted from the server, then you'd have to
recreate the folders at the server level.

It would seem that TB! will subscribe and synchronise with mail on the
server and not the other way around.

Right click the account and open 'Manage IMAP folders'. From there you
should see what folders are on the server. If there are none then you'll
try hitting the 'reset list' button. If that doesn't recreate the
folders on the server then you'll likely need to manually recreate them,
i.e., the same folders as in your account, and then synchronise.
