No it's perfectly clear and it's a user interface issue. SquirrelMail tries to display a list of folders as tree and doesn't take care of the missing nodes (the \NoSelect folders) > I wonder why nobody reported this before - am I the only one to use both > Squirrelmail and Thunderbird with uw-imap (which seems to be the only one > to have \NoSelect intermediary folders)? > It's been reported a long long time ago. The devel branch (1.5.1 CVS) makes use of a different approach to render the mailbox tree and takes care of the missing nodes. Only problem, it's not easy to port to stable because of lots of other related changes.
