Description Michael McCabe 2004-02-12 18:44:39 UTC
Description of problem:
After creating a folder on an IMAP email server evolution displays a
message that it couldn't create the folder correctly.  However the
folder still shows up on the Evolution sidebar, even though you can't
put anything in it.  

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-1.5.3-1

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a folder in evolution
2. Try to access it
3.
  
Actual results:
That a folder is created and it is accessible

Expected results:
An error message is displayed about the folder creation and the folder
shows up in the sidebar.

Additional info:
This is an upgrade of Evolution 1.4 settings that were imported

Comment 1 Michael McCabe 2004-02-12 18:48:25 UTC
Now when I try to start Evolution it Segfaults.  Here's the terminal
output.

Comment 2 Michael McCabe 2004-02-12 19:34:48 UTC
The folders are accessible throught the sever's web based email
interface.  The server is IBM Inotes.

Comment 3 Noa Resare 2004-02-13 08:49:33 UTC
This is reproducible with other imap servers as well. I have tested
with the dovecot-0.99.10-6 imap server on a Fedora Core 1 box.

Comment 4 Dave Malcolm 2004-09-21 19:03:02 UTC
I'm sorry that this bug has gone for so long without activity.

Are you still able to reproduce this bug?  If so, setting the
environment variable CAMEL_VERBOSE_DEBUG=1 before running evolution
may yield useful information (including the conversation with the IMAP
server).

Are you able to reproduce this bug with a more recent version of
evolution?  evolution-2.0.0 is now available in Rawhide

Comment 5 Noa Resare 2004-09-22 03:31:03 UTC
I can no longer reproduce this with evolution-1.5.94.1-1 from
development.
