hmm... no I don't think that is the same thing. The Inbox is where it
always is. it is a question of where all the other folders are. On my
server i have a home-dir (/home/jwilm :-) ) Now in that dir, squirelmail
has placed a folder called "mail". It has then created all folders (except
inbox) within that folder. Now the disconnected imap _does_ work when i
specify a single folder (fx prefix= mail/Trash) but it does then only use
that one single folder. When I just specify "mail", as I do in online
IMAP, it seems to both try opening all the folders within "mail"
_and_ a folder "mail" within "mail" (it doesn't work when i put a folder
named /home/johannes/mail/mail though either). After displaying an
error-message, it usually simply crashes.
