Who? Me or the Mac guys?
Are you saying that the server doesn't display them or allow access to
them, or that your client can't deal with the namespace/hier-sep change?
Do this to see what the server is doing:
1. either telnet to the server and login, or connect with imtest
2. enter: a NAMESPACE
3. enter: b LIST "" *
4. enter: c LOGOUT
This will show you the namespace and all folders that you have access
to. If what gets returned is incorrect, please let me know. Otherwise,
try refreshing the folder list in your client, or setup a different
profile.
