Synopsis: Can't make a virtual folder from a folder and its sub-folders
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Mailer
Bugzilla-Version: 2.0.2
Description:
Description of Problem:

In doing a search, you can search a single folder, or a group of named
folders, but you can't search a folder and all its sub-folders without
including the name of each folder.

Here's my problem: I have a folder "Mailing lists", with one folder for
each mailing list that I'm on. I want to have a virtual folder for all
mailing list messages over 1 month old, so I can delete those messages
(that's what Mailman archives are for!). But I don't want to have to
edit the virtual folder every time I subscribe or unsubscribe to a new
mailing list.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Search -> Create Virtual folder from Search...
2. Make the search criterion "Date sent" "is before" "1 month ago". (Or,
set it to "now" if you just want to test the actual bug.)
3. Select "Specific folders only" for the vfolder source.
3. In the vfolder source box, add a folder with sub-folders.

Actual Results:

The results will only show messages in the top-level folder -- not its
sub-folders.

Expected Results:

All messages in the folder -- not just _directly_ in the folder --
should be shown.

How often does this happen?

Every time.
