I can confirm the issue.  I have noticed though that in IMAP+ on one of
my machines it will create the folder and it's saved on the IMAP server,
but it doesn't show in the treeview inside Evolution until you close and
restart Evolution - you can't even refresh the subscription list to see
it.

On my other machine - that appears to be configured identically - it
looks like it creates the folder but the folder is never actually
created on the server.  On this one when I watch the Cyrus server logs
it never shows any activity from the Evolution client.

I'm beginning to see why they went with Thunderbird as the default mail
client now.

Running Evolution 3.2.0 from Oneiric.

Title:
  Can no longer create IMAP folders

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Recent versions of evolution took away the ability to create IMAP
  folders. This seemed to work with some versions of 3.x, but this has
  been broken for (at least) a few weeks. My IMAP configuration has not
  changed and I do not see any errors on the IMAP server.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. connect to an IMAP server (in my case, dovecot on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS)
  2. Right-click on the Inbox for the IMAP account (can also do 'File/New/Mail 
Folder' or 'New/Mail Folder'-- none work)
  3. select 'New folder...'
  4. At this point I am presented with the 'Create FOlder' dialog box, but 
under 'Specify where to create the folder' I only have 'On the computer' and 
'Search Folders'

  Right now I have to create folder on the server for them to show up in
  evolution, but this is highly undesirable.
