    Hi All,

    I have directly created imap folders on the server in my INBOX directory ...

    The problem is that mutt refuse to display these new folders !

    I use cache ..

    Is it possible to refresh mutt cache in order to be able to use my new folders on mutt ?

    Thanks a lot for your help

    Hi,

    I have succeed in seeing my folders in mutt after using thunderbird and subscribing to new folders ...

    So my question is .. What is the command to subscribe to new imap folders in mutt ?

    Thanks a lot

    Cheers

    If after (c)hange folder you press the ?-key the list of folders
    displayed depends on the boolean imap_list_subscribed setting, which
    defaults to 'no' so likely it's set in your config.

    | This variable configures whether IMAP folder browsing will look for
    | only subscribed folders or all folders. This can be toggled in the IMAP
    | browser with the <toggle-subscribed> function.

    toggle-subscribed is per default bound to the T key in folder view. You
    can (s)ubscribe and (u)nsubscribe to a folder there.

    The mailboxes command in your configuration adds folders to be listed in
    the subscribed view, these folders are also polled for new mail, which
    for subscribed folders happens only if imap_check_subscribed is set:

    | When set, mutt will fetch the set of subscribed folders from your
    | server on connection, and add them to the set of mailboxes it polls for
    | new mail just as if you had issued individual “mailboxes” commands.

    For example, I have something like

    mailboxes !
    mailboxes SomeFolder
    mailboxes SomeDir/OtherFolder

    These are also the folders offered when after (c)hange folder pressing
    the Tab-key twice.

    Thanks a lot Eike,

    I think I understand now how mutt works concerning imap folders ...

    Cheers
