Yes, the groupware folders look just like regular folders. But wait,  
when you create the folders in dIMAP account, the dailog where you  
enter the name of the folder has a drop down menu where you can choose  
the contents of the folder. Among the possible choices are "Contacts",  
"Calendar" etc. Did you specify the correct contents?

To investigate why a folder doesn't show up in the subscription list,  
I've  created a new subfolder in my dIMAP account. And right after  
creation, it didn't appear in the subscription list! Only after I had  
synced the dIMAP account with the server did the folder show up in the  
subscription list.

Don't give up! You could try using 'kolabwizard' if we are not getting  
it to work manually but the wizard has it's own problems as I  
mentioned earlier in this thread.

Cheers,

Andreas
