[Dovecot] dovecot IMAPS + kmail
I notice that kmail does not allow an IMAP sub-folder to be created (from an IMAPS client). When I try, kmail says this cannot be done for one of the following reasons: Your access permissions may be inadequate to perform the requested operation on this resource. The location where the folder was to be created may not exist. A protocol error or incompatibility may have occurred.
Is there any simple way of getting round this? KMail has no problem creating top-level IMAP folders.

Sorry, while that was true I find I can create IMAP sub-folders when I run KMail on the desktop holding the IMAP emails.
That's a very strange behavior. KMail should not need to know or care where or how the IMAP server stores its mail. You probably should document that behavior and report it as a KMail bug.

Hi,
maybe there's something else in your setup. I surely can use imap sub-folders with kmail 1.9.7 and dovecot 1.0

The question was not if I could use them, but if I could _create_ them (sub-folders). As I mentioned, I can create them if I run kmail on my desktop. There is then no problem accessing these folders on my laptop client.
Can you create sub-folders on an IMAP client?

Hi,
I'm running kmail as an imaps client, and sure, I can create subfolders -in any of the imap servers i run-. I can also create subfolders with thunderbird -also, as an imap client- and use them with kmail, and viceversa.
