No and Yes. Subscriptions are not Syncronization (or Pooling in Thunderbird's case). Subscriptions are server side and mainly are used by the IMAP client to separate "important" and "other_available" folders. In IMAP you can have hundreds and thousands mailboxes available. For example: user.userA.INBOX user.userA.INBOX.tbbeta user.userA.Trash user.userA.Sent Mail shared#.digitalfax shared#.conference IMAP mailbox shared#.fax can be shared by mail server admins to all users. But not all of them works with fax or need it. So they decide to unsubscribe from that folder. Syncronization works on top of all this by doing actual job by syncing mailboxes, but IMAP client can sync any folder. It doesn't matter if it was subscribed or not. -- Vilius ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 5.0.0.133 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
