Re: [Evolution] Lost Folder Namespace

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

I set namespace="mail" in my evolution config and my folder list
displays correctly as follows:

[-] fejj localhost
    |- INBOX
   [-] mail
    | [-] gnome
    |  |  |- desktop-devel
    |  |  |- foundation
    |  |  |- gnome2-list
    |  |  |- gnome-cvs
    |  |  |- gnome-list
    | [-] ximian
    |     |- evolution
    |     |- evolution-hackers
    |     |- evolution-patches
    |- Trash

keep in mind that the namespace is ONLY used for limiting the LIST/LSUB
commands - it does NOT trim the namespace from the folder names.
