no, Apple Mail usually automatically subscribes to all folders. Some may not appear immediately, but mostly they appear within the next relaunch. What I've witnessed however, is complete months of email which vanisch and do not appear in their relative "Year/month" dir, not even after a "manual" sync. I don't think it's a courier bug, but it definitively happens in concurrence with the rotation (read: with an sqwebmail login). I also realize the rotation feature is confusing many users. I've been using it for years now, but now that I know how it works (should have studied the mans better...) I also see why it is confusing: consider the case of a user who mails by IMAP for a few months, and then on holiday he uses sqwebmail: upon return from the holiday he thinks all his mails are gone on the IMAP client, until he realizes the subfolders and subscribes to them (we've had tens of such calls). on the other hand, I understand that changing this default now would almost certainly irritate existing courier users... just thoughts - it's OK to have the option at least to disable rotation. maybe the solution would be to make it a global feature, independent from which kind of client is used, so users and MUAs get used to it from the beginning ;) As for the bug, I'll file it at Apple as soon as I find a way to reproduce it by hand...
