GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 665253
"New folder" dialog does not show IMAP accounts
Last modified: 2011-12-16 08:16:03 UTC
I would like to create a folder on an IMAP server. When I bring up the "New Folder..." dialogue, neither of my two IMAP servers appear as places to put folders. I therefore can't create folders on IMAP servers using evolution. There don't seem to be any diagnostic messages when I run evolution from a shell. This bug has been reported on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/878460 I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneric).
As reported downstream for some people it works with IMAP+ at least.
I can confirm that this bug exists on Fedora 16, with evolution-3.2.2-1.fc16.x86_64 and two IMAP servers (haven't checked IMAP+ yet).
Works after changing over accounts to IMAP+ and restarting evolution.
Confirming, the IMAP accounts are missing from the dialog's folder tree.
Created attachment 203636 [details] [review] eds patch for evolution-data-server; What a conspiracy against IMAP provider :) Seriously, thanks for catching this typo. The issue is that the New Folder dialog thought the IMAP store has uneditable folders, thus it didn't add it to its folder tree.
