Nope, I never subscribed my folders in Evolution 1.0.8, I just let it know that my "folder space" was mail/ and that's it, it got all my already subscribe folders. Anyway, the problem isn't suscribing the folders; the problem is that I lose those settings (subscribed folders) when I close and reopen Evolution 1.2 and, really, it isn't funny having to re-suscribe a lot of folders over and over again :). > > After closing and open Evolution 1.2, it loses the "subscribed folders" > > and I have to go over them suscribing again.

Yes, I do read the errors and accept the certs, since I am sure it is from the right site, but the random errors I am talking about are "Can't connect to secure mail server" (or something like that), when I am connected to it via SSH and/or web (thus, there IS physical connection to the server). > The other kookiness sounds kinda like the unpredictability that comes > with running multiple IMAP sessions.

Closing one of the IMAP > sessions brings everything back to normal. Nope, I am careful enough of not opening mail from office and home at the same time. Sometimes, if I have to run out of the office and go home suddenly, I just connect via SSH to office and kill evolution so it doesn't fight with the one at home. I think I'll start making some other tests, like setting up two (or more) imap + ssl accounts without a lot of subscribed folders, to see if it is a "size" problem ;).
