[Dovecot] Mail.app help

[Mike Garfias]

Timo -

Thanks for the reply.

I know it _LOOKS_ like I set the prefix, but I did not.

In the prefs, my IMAP Path Prefix is blank.

I discovered, that Mail.app puts the non-prefixed folders directly into the
sidebar, which is kind of whacky, but I can live with.  Prefixed folders go
under the inbox.

I don't get it, but it seems to be working ok, so I'll live with it.

I also duplicated this on another mac so its not just my box being wonky.

Thanks
