[Bug 643446] Re: Evolution does not show subfolders of IMAP account
I've experienced the phenomenon described in the initial bug report. Ubuntu 12.04 $ apt-cache policy evolution evolution: Installed: 3.2.3-0ubuntu6 Candidate: 3.2.3-0ubuntu6 Version table: *** 3.2.3-0ubuntu6 0 500 http://mirror.umd.edu/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status The IMAP server involved is dovecot running on a Ubuntu 12.04 server. The version of dovecot is 2.0.19-0ubuntu2. My account was set to use IMAP+ so IMAP+ is not in and of itself a solution to the problem. I believe that what happens is that some changes on the server can cause evolution to get into a bad state. In my case, I renamed some folders directly in the dovecot filesystem store. I may have carelessly left evolution connected while I did this. At any rate, at some point evolution stopped listing my subfolders. If I went into the preferences for this account and clicked Apply, even without changing anything, this would trigger something which made evolution detect the subfolders and list them. However, exiting evolution and starting it again would bring the problem back: I'd get my Inbox but nothing else until I triggered again the discovery of the subfolders by going into the preferences. I eventually switched my account from IMAP+ to IMAP... and the problem disappeared. Why? I don't know. I switched back to IMAP+ and the problem did not come back. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/643446 Title: Evolution does not show subfolders of IMAP account To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/643446/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Changing the type of the account from IMAP to IMAP+ seems to have solved the problem in my case.

[Bug 643446] Re: Evolution does not show subfolders of IMAP account
I see the same behavior with Evolution 2.30.3 on Ubuntu 10.10 on an IMAP account using SSL. Remote IMAP server is Dovecot. On startup only INBOX is shown, if I change settings in the account config, the subfolders are displayed. After restarting evolution, the folders are invisible again. -- Evolution does not show subfolders of IMAP account https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/643446 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I forgot to update the status, the bug is still there. Changing the port fixed it for that session as it does enabling and disabling the account, but the problem appeared again after a restart of Evolution. -- Evolution does not show subfolders of IMAP account https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/643446 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 643446] Re: Evolution does not show subfolders of IMAP account
I think I've found the problem. On the mail address I had specified the port number, e.g. m...@mail.com:993. Removing the port fixed the problem. Luckily this was the default port for IMAP, otherwise I would be in trouble.

** Description changed: Binary package hint: evolution - In Maverick Meerkat beta, evolution sometimes (but not always) does not show the subfolders of an IMAP mail account. + In Maverick Meerkat beta, evolution does not show the subfolders of an IMAP mail account. Even a newly created subfolder will not show up. However, I can see the subfolders in ~/.evolution/mail/imap/account/folders/INBOX/subfolders. When this happens loggin out or even rebooting does not solve the problem. I was able to workaround it by disabling and enabling the account again.
