GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 333427
Subscriptions dialog should default to the account in folder pane
Last modified: 2010-10-02 23:52:50 UTC
Accessed via Menus: Folders->Subscriptions. This dialog could automatically select the server that is currently selected in the mailbox listing pane. Other information:

i'm not sure about this. if it's a big and complex server with lots of subscriptions, this oculd perhaps block the UI. don't know, i cannot test it - only have a very simple imap account here.
Yes, this could be a problem. It appears that the scanning for subscriptions is done in the background though. At least this is what happens here, as they have my entire homedir shared using IMAP. Sorry about the dupe.
Enhancement.

Fixed for 2.91.0 by: http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/commit/?id=ec089b4a4129458f7140254607306eec0ef4aebf If the highlighted folder in the sidebar is part of a store that supports folder subscriptions, that store is automatically chosen when you open the Folder Subscriptions dialog. Otherwise if the default account supports folder subscriptions, that store is automatically chosen. Last resort is to automatically choose the first account in the account list that supports folder subscriptions.
