Re: [cobalt-users] [RaQ3] Strange IMAP problem

["Ing. Ernesto Pérez Estévez" <ernesto@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well I had something similar. 

I use to store my mails under Mail/ directory; usually that directory is
created right under the user's root directory (/home/ernesto in my case)
but since I upgraded my IMAP folders MUST be under mail/ directory
(/home/ernesto/mail/).

So I moved my Mail/ directory under mail/ (/home/ernesto/mail/Mail) and
everything is working fine.

If you don't use Mail/ or mail/ (I'm sure you don't use mail/ otherwise
you'll be seeing the folders) the IMAP folders should be located under
the user root directory (/home/ernesto/), move ALL the IMAP folders
(they are files for unix) under mail/ directory and you'll see them.

If you don't fully understand or require further help, please, contact
me and I'll try to help.

Regards

Ernesto
