> I'm having folders disappear.

[UPDATE]
I hope some of you are familiar with Horde/IMP webmail.

When I tried performing the "fix" process that I wrote about
originally (deleting "disappeared" folder through a webmail interface,
then re-creating it), I noticed that the folder that had the problem
looked different in the folder list viewed in Horde.

My TBOT folder had a small outgoing arrow icon. Most of the other
folders look like an Inbox tray icon. TBOT had that, plus an outgoing
arrow. This is the same icon used for INBOX.Draft, INBOX.Sent, and
INBOX.Trash (but not INBOX, which has its own icon). Also, sent-mail
and spam folders have this icon.

Upon further review, I noticed that there were two other folders that
also had the "special" icon. Lo and behold, these folders were not
showing up in The Bat either.  And when I try to re-create the folder
in Horde, I get a "folder already exists" error. **(see below)

IIRC, the folders in question (with the outgoing icon) were created in
The Bat. It's possible they were created using the filter mechanism
"automatically create folder if necessary."  I say possible because I
know I used this for *some* folders, but cannot be sure if I used this
option for the folders in question.

Anyway, I'm curious about this icon and why these folders are
different. It's obvious that this is related to the disappearing
folder act I've been experiencing, but I can't figure out what's going
on. Horde's help system is pretty sparse and doesn't mention the icons
at all.

Anyone familiar with Horde/IMP?  Or what these icons could mean that
would cause them to disappear in The Bat?

** After deleting TBOT this last time, I tried empyting the Trash and
logging out of Horde.  I logged back in and created a new TBOT folder
- regular icon!!

I will test this further and report back. However, I'd appreciate
anyone familiar with Horde and/or what I'm experiencing to offer any
feedback.
