Description David Woodhouse 2015-03-26 16:52:00 UTC 
I deleted some folders from the IMAP server (via external means). Restarted Evolution. They were still visible.

I removed folders.db and it didn't help. Finally the nonexistent folders disappeared from the UI when I removed .ev-store-summary.

Don't we issue a LIST on startup precisely so that we can notice the addition of new, and the deletion of old, folders?

This does appear to be working correctly in 3.12, FWIW.
Comment 2 Milan Crha 2015-04-01 08:40:00 UTC 
Thanks for a bug report. Interesting. The 'trick' is to right-click the account name and pick 'Refresh' there, which refreshes also the folder list. This should be done on open too, regardless of the option to 'Check for new messages on start' in Mail Preferences, but it seem to fail to do it for some reason.

This is after the change for bug #743533.
Comment 4 Milan Crha 2015-04-01 11:28:36 UTC 
I returned the removed code back to sources and extended it to work better than it did before.

Created commit 5633ef9 in eds master (3.17.1+)
Created commit 0d12eda in eds gnome-3-16 (3.16.1+)
