hrm. i actually see this described behavior in outlook (2000) and outlook express. as in always see files outside of the name space. not to suggest this is proper, just that it appears in other "common" clients as well. On Tue, 2002-08-06 at 14:28, Lonnie Borntreger wrote:

The concept of the folder namespace is so that you define a "sandbox" for the client to search for folders in. IOW, if you turn off "Show Subscribed Only", you still should be restricted to only seeing what is under the defined namespace. If you EVER see files outside of that folder namespace, then it is not working correctly. If I do that in CVS Evo now, the folder bar will show my .profile, which is NOT inside my folder namespace - and not even shown as a folder I can subscribe to, since the subscription view uses the namespace. Any other IMAP mailer I've used (OE, Outlook, Netscape, Mozilla, pine, previous versions of evolution...) - even if it's just "hidden behind the scenes" - does not show any folders that make up the namespace - or any files outside of it (subscribed or not). For example, if you used namespace="mail" in any of those, your folder list would look like: [-] fejj localhost |- INBOX [-] gnome | |- desktop-devel | |- foundation | |- gnome2-list | |- gnome-cvs | |- gnome-list [-] ximian | |- evolution | |- evolution-hackers | |- evolution-patches |- Trash I find that change in the display annoying, but but that is not the problem I'm seeing with subscribing. The problem is that some parts of the code are "hiding" that namespace path, and others aren't. That is the only reason I can come up with for the fact that the Folder Bar does not show subscribed folders. Somewhere between the subscribe and the show, they are not communicating the same "namespace" language. Try deleting your account in Evo, removing your imap local store, and then re-adding the account. Then you'll see the problem. That's when I first ran into it. Just running a "newer" Evo with my old config started showing files outside the namespace, but the folders under the namespace were still there. (and as long as Evo finds your old local store, it will be fine - but that is not what a new user will see) TTFN, Lonnie _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - evolution ximian com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
