Exactly... but called containers, (any name for them you wish), holding
your favorite mailboxes, or any group of mailboxes you wish. Does not have
to be subscribed to physically see these mailboxes.

Agreed, the RFC is nebulous enough <g>

Have not played much in Evolution, other than to set it up.

Now that is an interesting idea..
