Hmmm ... didn't see this possiblity, thanks for this.

However, (yes, Evo 1.2.1 upgrade on 1.0.8-99) ticking off the IMAP boxes
that I want doesn't get "remembered". As soon as I close tools, and go
back and look, the boxes are unticked. Restarting Evo, doing 'killev'
and even a reboot in between times doesn't make any difference. In fact,
nothing in the "folder settings" (? translating from Norwegian) part of
tools gets saved.

AFAICS all file permissions in my home drectory are correct, where is
Evo supposed to save these settings? 

Best,

Tony
