Though when I was playing with 1.0test46, I attempted to create a folder in an mbox where only messages can be; it silently fails.
Dovecot gives an "Mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes" error though, client should have shown that..
So I don't think it hurts to have that checkbox checked which signifies that the server supports folders which can contain both types of data even though with mbox, they're mutually exclusive.
However, a "mutually-exclusive" setup more or less keeps you from usefully using a Maildir-centric setup. ;)So I'm with you; it's a client settings issue.
I don't really understand why that checkbox even exists. It's simple to check automatically, and having one global checkbox for that gets it wrong if you're using mixed mbox/maildir setup.
