Actually, the only setting I know of in Tbird for handling subscribed folders is: Account Settings > Server Settings > Advanced > Show only subscribed folders (checkbox) There is a setting for automatically setting new folders to 'offline' mode. -- Best regards, Charles

When I am in Thunderbird and I create a new "subfolder" under my Inbox, it shows up on the emal server as: /home/user/Maildir/.new_folder When I do this from the client, I don't think I force my client (Thunderbird) to subscribe to the folder.

[Dovecot] Unable To Move IMAP Folder (Dovecot)
I have a user who has a folder in his Maildir/ called "test" /home/user/Maildir/.test This folder shows up as a sub folder to his Inbox on his Thunderbird client and I tried using the "cp" command to move this over to my Maildir/ directory on the same server and when I launch Thunderbird, that folder is not visible for me. I made sure permissions are correct and even reloaded Dovecot. mail:/home/user/Maildir# cp -R .test/ /home/me/Maildir/ mail:/home/user/Maildir# chown -R me:users .test/ The permissions and ownership seem to be identical to all the folders I created as subfolders myself but for some reason, I can NOT see "test/". Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
