I cannot remember that I ever created the groupware folders myself,  
I'm pretty sure it was done automatically. As Ingo already said, you  
could manually create them. The folder names are: Calendar, Contacts,  
Journal, Notes, Tasks.

In my setup the dIMAP account subscribes only to the groupware folders  
and it doesn't have any folders locally subscribed.

My online IMAP account uses only local subscription to all my email  
folders. In the "Subscription" context menu no folders are checked. In  
Configure -> Accounts -> <online IMAP account> I've activated the  
"Show only locally subscribed folders" option.

The dIMAP doesn't use "Local Subscriptions" but "Subscriptions" for  
the groupware resource folders.

can you try again, after you have created the groupwar folders by hand?

And when you have the resource folders, add the IMAP resources to your  
kaddressbook and korganizer.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Andreas
