Yes, I know that. Thanks for explaining anyway.
For this particular IMAP account however I have a
quite specific setup:
On the desktop machine (where CM runs) I want to have
all email (except one folder X) downloaded locally. So
I have a filter rules which moves all mail to
relevant MH folders and no copies are kept on server
long term (except for folder X).
I have another IMAP folder Y for which I have a
server-based filter rule. It moves specific
service messages in Y. I need this because when
checking that account from my phone I don't want to
see those particular messages. So on my phone I just
don't subscribe to that folder.
That's all. I have no other custom IMAP folders for
that account.
So I was wondering if I could make CM download the
messages from that folder too when checking email. As
far as I understand that is not possible without extra
rules/moves/clicks.
