I can reproduce this bug: Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> X-Mailer: reportbug 3.18 Date: Sat, 28 Jan 2006 03:08:24 +0100
Package: evolution Version: 2.4.2.1-1 Followup-For: Bug #140937 1. create 2 new maildirfolders in ~/Maildir on the imapserver: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Maildir$ maildirmake.dovecot .test.1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Maildir$ maildirmake.dovecot .test.2 This is the ExtendedMaildiFormat introduced by Courier to create subfolders (http://wiki.mutt.org/?ExtendedMaildirFormat): Maildir/ cur/ new/ tmp/ .test.1/ cur/ new/ tmp/ .test.2/ cur/ new/ tmp/ In a MUA, it would look like this: INBOX |-test | |-1 | `-2 `-Sent 2. Now subscribe to the new subfolders in Evolution: 'Folder --> Subscriptions --> Refresh' and select 'test' This gives: "Error while performing operation. IMAP command failed: [TRYCREATE] Mailbox doesn't exist: test" The subfolders can be selected but they aren't visible until Evolution is restarted. The subfolders can only be accessed when the tree is expanded. If you try to select the 'test' folder directly you get: "Error while Opening folder imap://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/tst;noselect=yes. No such folder test" These problems don't occur in Thunderbird or Mutt. In TB, the 'test' folder is grey and italic and in mutt the folder is shown as 'test.'. A workaround is to manually create a new folder in Evolution and after that create the subfolders. But that isn't right because you now have an empty 'test' folder with a 'new', 'cur' and 'tmp' dir in it. hth, Frank -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nl_NL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages evolution depends on: ii evolution-dat 1.4.2.1-1 evolution database backend server ii gconf2 2.12.1-8 GNOME configuration database syste ii gnome-icon-th 2.12.1-2 GNOME Desktop icon theme ii gtkhtml3.8 3.8.1-1 HTML rendering/editing library - b ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-6 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libbonobo2-0 2.10.1-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2- 2.10.1-2 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.5-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcairo2 1.0.2-3 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcamel1.2-6 1.4.2.1-1 The Evolution MIME message handlin ii libcomerr2 1.38+1.39-WIP-2005.12.31-1 common error description library ii libcompfaceg1 1:1.5.2-2 Compress/decompress images for mai ii libdb4.2 4.2.52-23 Berkeley v4.2 Database Libraries [ ii libebook1.2-5 1.4.2.1-1 Client library for evolution addre ii libecal1.2-3 1.4.2.1-1 Client library for evolution calen ii libedataserve 1.4.2.1-1 Utility library for evolution data ii libedataserve 1.4.2.1-1 GUI utility library for evolution ii libesd0 0.2.36-3 Enlightened Sound Daemon - Shared ii libfontconfig 2.3.2-1.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.10-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgail-commo 1.8.8-1 GNOME Accessibility Implementation ii libgail17 1.8.8-1 GNOME Accessibility Implementation ii libgconf2-4 2.12.1-8 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgcrypt11 1.2.2-1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglade2-0 1:2.5.1-2 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.8.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyr 0.4.6-2 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome-pilo 2.0.12-1.6 Support libraries for gnome-pilot ii libgnome2-0 2.12.0.1-4 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanva 2.12.0-2 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeprint 2.12.1-3 The GNOME 2.2 print architecture - ii libgnomeprint 2.12.1-2 GNOME 2.2 print architecture User ii libgnomeui-0 2.12.0-2 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2- 2.12.2-5 GNOME virtual file-system (runtime ii libgnutls11 1.0.16-14 GNU TLS library - runtime library ii libgpg-error0 1.1-4 library for common error values an ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.10-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtkhtml3.8 3.8.1-1 HTML rendering/editing library - r ii libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-11 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libkrb53 1.4.3-5 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap2 2.1.30-12 OpenLDAP libraries ii libnspr4 2:1.7.12-1 Netscape Portable Runtime Library ii libnss3 2:1.7.12-1 Network Security Service Libraries ii liborbit2 1:2.12.4-1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.10.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpisock8 0.11.8-17 Library for communicating with a P ii libpisync0 0.11.8-17 Synchronization library for PalmOS ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5 PNG library - runtime ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Session Management ii libsoup2.2-8 2.2.6-1 an HTTP library implementation in ii libtasn1-2 0.2.17-1 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System protocol client li ii libxcursor1 1.1.3-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxi6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Input extension li ii libxinerama1 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System multi-head display ii libxml2 2.6.23.dfsg.1-0.1 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Resize, Rotate and ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0.2-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime Versions of packages evolution recommends: ii evolution-plugins 2.4.2.1-1 All bundled plugins for Evolution ii gnome-desktop-data 2.12.2-2 Common files for GNOME 2 desktop a ii gnome-pilot-conduits 2.0.12-2 conduits for gnome-pilot ii mozilla-psm 2:1.7.12-1 The Mozilla Internet application s pn spamassassin <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
