An other (very unusual) feature of Balsa's IMAP implementation is the 
distinction between IMAP mailbox, IMAP folder and IMAP subfolder (the latter 
even not accessible through the config dialogue).  The typical (IMHO) IMAP use 
case is to access the complete folder tree of the remote server, and show/hide 
certain folders using subscribe/unsubscribe.

IOW, would it make sense to keep /only/ the “IMAP folder” option, and to drop 
the other two completely?  Would we need a fallback path for old configurations 
using the IMAP mailbox or subfolder?  Opinions?

Agreed that 'IMAP mailbox' is obsolete. As I recall, 'New -> IMAP subfolder' is 
there to manage the IMAP folder tree. The folder context menu allows deletion and 
rnaming, but I believe that only 'new subfolder' allows creation.

Best,

Peter
