Yes, it's technically "legal". By doing so, Claws is defining those folders as MH mailboxes, but that's generally harmless. > - Should mutt show subdirectories of directories that contain a > .mh_sequences file? Put another way, can MH mailboxes legally contain subfolders? According to this: http://docs.python.org/lib/mailbox-mh.html, yes, indeed they can, so it's a mutt bug. The next question to ask, before filing a bug, is: in mutt's browser, how should it display this information to the user? (Think of it in terms of "minimally invasive to the existing way of displaying things" not in terms of "if I was writing a mail browser from scratch, I'd make it look like Claws", because that will be more likely to get your bug addressed). I suggest double-listing in the parent directory, e.g. when browsing a parent directory (note the use of the slash): Folder1 Folder2 Folder2/ Folder3 Folder4/ While you're at it, mutt has this same problem in imap. :) ~Kyle - -- Science is what we can tell a computer.
