It wont show up as a folder, it is a source, and you use 'get mail' to
move it fromt he spool into evolution.

Oh sorry, someone renamed 'get mail' to the much more obvious 'send /

Hopefully the next next release will have a way to 'visit' such folders,
but for now you have to incorporate mail this way.
