No, that isn't correct. All user mbox files (IMAP folders) are in a hierarchical filesystem directory tree under ~/Mail/. There are only about 20 folders/subdirectories at the top level, but more than 2000 folders below that level. Thunderbird is perfectly capable of displaying a hierarchical folder structure. Each filesystem subdirectory is displayed with a "+" or "-" sign which is collapsable. I was hoping that Squirrelmail would be able to do the same thing, since they both use the same Dovecot IMAP server. But maybe I'm mistaken: Is it correct that Squirrelmail DOES NOT support folders in a hierarchical filesystem directory tree ? If so, is this just a bug, or should we suggest the developers to make this enhancement ? > See screenshots with collapsible folders in Cyrus and Dovecot > http://yfrog.com/1nnuotrauka4p > > In Cyrus all personal folders are under INBOX.

I'm not following you here. We definitely need Collapsable Folders with only one account. There is no reason to invoke namespaces here, because the mbox folder structure is a trivial filesystem tree under ~/Mail/ Best regards, Ole ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
