I think the "public folders" configuration will stay as it is now. Does it really even need anything else?
One thing I notice is that if I read a message in my inbox and then move it to a public folder, it is marked as unread in the public folder. Ideally, it would be marked as read (for me, unread for others).
I'm still on 1.0beta6 so forgive me if this has been changed in the RCs.
Oh, and another thing. Users cannot delete public folders from Thunderbird if they have Thunderbird configured to move deleted items to a Trash folder. In order to delete a public folder, the user has to temporarily configure Thunderbird to delete items immediately.
But normal users shouldn't normally be able to delete public folders, should they? Unless you mean folders of *theirs* that they have shared.
Public Folders should be managed only by designated admins, no?
In our environment "public" refers to our in-house staff. They create a "public" folder for each project they work on so all team members can see all the mail related to the project. It works best as a collaborative effort. I don't really want them to have to come to me to request creation or deletion of a folder.
The most common reason to delete a folder is that someone tries to make one with a period in its name, and you know what happens then.
