OK, but is it normal, that the client can get the server to list the content of the filesystem root (when I enter "/" as mail root)? > Otherwise, don't set mailsubdir, and instead set "root folder" to "mail". Then I have to set it in all other clients as well. >> Why do I have to enter the full local path as "root folder" in the >> client, although I configured the "mail" path of my home directory in >> /etc/c-client.cf? >> Why do I have that "mail" IMAP folder in the client? > > Because that is apparently the way that your client works.

Is there anything else I can enter as "root folder", which will not list the mail folder itself (as a workaround)? I already tried "." and "./", but uw-imap then lists nothing or also the mail folder itself. If not, I will live with that dummy folder until Palm provides a fix. Thanks!
