Re: [Evolution] IMAP Connections ...

[Ryan P Skadberg <skadz mindstorm com>]

I have set this now to keep the connection open (actually, today is the
first time I am really running it that way), but I use procmail and have
about 40 folders (instead of 600) I would like it to auto check.  I know
its not a minor task to code, but it would be really nice if I was able
to say check these 40 folders and nothing else, not either just INBOX or
everything.
