With creating x.y.z you really create only folder z and a folder hirarchy x.y, in which you can not store emails (nor have any access).
You have to create x and x.y, in order to get complete folders and subfolders usable for emails and be able to delete them :-) Kind regards, Christian Mack -- Christian Mack Universität Konstanz Kommunikations-, Informations-, Medienzentrum (KIM) Abteilung IT-Dienste Forschung, Lehre, Infrastruktur 78457 Konstanz +49 7531 88-4416
