[Users] Problem finding new folders

[Johan Vromans]

Hi,

I have a INBOX that connects to a dovecot IMAP server.
Somehow Claws stopped being able to find new folders.

I'm pretty sure this worked in the past and I cannot say whether it was a
Claws upgrade or a Dovecot upgrade or something else that made it stop
working.

The current situation is that "Check for new folders" returns a list of
folders for a specific sublist 'Lists':

[08:36:25] IMAP4> 2780 LSUB "" "Lists.%" 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Perl 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Test 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.News_plus 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Openbox 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Davical-general 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Developers 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Gramps-announce 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Music 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.DTP_Graphics 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Tasks 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Business-calendar 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Abbyy-ocr-for-linux 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Davclients 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Mediawiki-announce 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Passwordsafe 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Claws-Mail 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Templates 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Spksrc 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Bugzilla 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Client 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.EekBoek-devel 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.EekBoek-users 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.wxGlade-general 
[08:36:25] IMAP4< 2780 OK Lsub completed. 

There should have been an entry Lists.Bits_of_Freedom, since there is such a
folder on the server.

When I manually create this folder in Claws, I immedeately get the messages
that were in this folder. So it definitely did exist.

After creating (and accessing) the group from Claws, "Check for new
folders" includes it:

[08:38:13] IMAP4> 2984 LSUB "" "Lists.%" 
[08:38:13] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Perl 
[08:38:13] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Test 
...
[08:38:13] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.wxGlade-general 
[08:38:13] IMAP4< * LSUB () "." Lists.Bits_of_Freedom 
[08:38:13] IMAP4< 2984 OK Lsub completed. 

However, this takes the usefulness out of the "Check for new folders"
function.

Any idea what is going wrong here?
