Re: Bug Report: Missing parent folders will cause some clients to not retrieve messages

Thunderbird trips on this scenario. It creates a ghost folder for the parent of a child created with "fileinto :create" simply to display the child, and then complains that the parent is not a folder. This is why I wrote a server-side script to detect and create missing parent folders.

Filters in Thunderbird require the user to select an existing folder. There is no provision for creating a new folder if it doesn't exist.
