[Evolution] Problem subscribing to shared IMAP folders

[Jason Tackaberry <tack auc ca>]

Using Courier IMAP 1.6.2 and Evolution 1.2.1.  I created a shared IMAP
folder and am able to subscribe and access it properly with Mozilla. 
The folder in question is: shared.its.test.  The subscribe dialog in
Evolution does not by default show the shared tree; it only shows what's
under INBOX.  Evolution is set to use the default namespace provided by
the server.

If I select the display option "Folders whose names begin with" and type
"shared.", then it shows the shared branch.  If I expand that, it shows
"its," but that is not an expandable branch -- in other words, there is
no 'test' subfolder from that as there should be.  I cannot subscribe to
'its' -- clicking the Subscribe button does nothing.

The weird thing is that this _was_ working earlier today.  After I
subscribed to the folder with Mozilla, evolution picked it up okay.  But
suddenly it stopped working, and now I can't even see the subfolder
'test' at all in the subscriptions dialog.  It continues to work fine
with Mozilla mail.

Any advice?  I just started experimenting with shared folders, so I'm
open to the possibility that I've done something wrong, which is why I'm
asking here before filing a bug.  So far I've been fairly unimpressed by
the lack of support for shared folders in most mail clients.  Evolution
at least has "Post a message" and "Post a reply" options a la Outlook,
but Netscape 4 and Mozilla mail remain anemic in this area.

Thanks for any help,
Jason.
