There's a lot of variables here that only you can determine. First thing to check is the difference between accounts (or how they are being used) that have those folders and ones that don't. Perhaps the script that created the bulk accounts created folders at the same time and the other script did not, leaving it to the user or the user's mail client to do so. SquirrelMail tries to create those folders if they don't exist, depending on this setting in the configuration tool: 3. Folder Defaults ==> 16. Auto Create Special Folders If some of your users are using Outlook or Thunderbird or some other mail client, those tools may or may not have their own ways of creating such folders. -- Paul Lesniewski SquirrelMail Team Please support Open Source Software by donating to SquirrelMail! http://squirrelmail.org/donate_paul_lesniewski.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev ----- squirrelmail-users mailing list Posting guidelines: http://squirrelmail.org/postingguidelines List address: squirrelmail-users@lists.sourceforge.net List archives: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.mail.squirrelmail.user List info (subscribe/unsubscribe/change options): https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/squirrelmail-users
