David:
Under: Tools | Accounts
Select the IMAP "Server settings" under the account in question and click on "Advanced".
In the field labelled "IMAP server directory" type in the name of the directory where your email is delivered to.
In my case, my email is delivered to a directory called "mail" off of my home directory, so in the "IMAP server directory" field I have: mail/
Which would be my /home/jgroves/mail directory when I log in.
Check it out.
Good luck,

When I say subfolders those are any folders under the root INBOX folder. Courier IMAP places the entire folder tree as subfolders of INBOX. Depending on email client and how it deals with IMAP namespace these subfolders appear either on the same level as INBOX or a Level under INBOX. So far with version .9 of thunderbird (as well as evolution 1.4.6) with a courier imap server these folders always appear under the IMAP level (as subfolders) regardless of namespace value I've tried.
So, on Thunderbird it fails to see the contents of these subfolders or
to write to these subfolders (so on send, you get an error about the
sent folder being unavailable or a disconnection error to save your sent
copy). On evolution it has no problem seeing or writing to these
subfolders.

Has anyone else had issues with Thunderbird and SSL IMAP? I was trying to use Thunderbird for my wife (Thunderbird .9 on WinXP) and SSL IMAP would fail to show subfolders. INBOX access was fine, but any subfolders would fail. I'll probably upgrade her this weekend, but was curious if anyone was seeing this in the 1.0 release.
Cheers, David

I have just moved from ThunderBird on Windows98se to ThunderBird on Ubuntu Linux. My only complaint is that while there is a way to move the Address Book (export it), it appears that there is no way to move all my old Tb/win emails to Linux.
Other than that, I love the thing.
