[eGroupWare-users] FW: Question regarding EGW e-mail setup...

[Brett Z. <br...@za...>]

I've noticed that in addition to the Manage Folders area, this listing of
all my personal Linux home directory folders is showing up in the drop-down
lists when I go to the FelaMiMail Preferences to choose my Trash and Sent
folder. Surely there is a way to limit the list of folders to just what
comes up when you first enter FelaMiMail?

Regards,

Brett

Subject: Question regarding EGW e-mail setup...


Hi...

I have a question regarding setting up e-mail in EGW. I think I've done
something incorrectly. My e-mail server is running on RedHat Linux 9. IMAP,
POP, and SMTP are all running and things seem to be functioning properly. I
can send and receive e-mail.

In my environment, each Linux user profiles data is located in the
/home/{user}/ path.

My question is specific to the how folders are displayed and listed in the
Manage Folders section of FelaMiMail. When I click that link, I'm seeing all
the directories that are listed in the /home/{user}/ path. While this is
probably proper functionality, it is not what I would like to see. Can this
be changed?

I don't get the same result when I click the FelaMiMail menu option. When I
click that FelaMiMail menu option, the only folders that are displayed are
INBOX, Sent, and Trash. This is the way I would like the Manage Folders list
to function too. I don't want it to display all the extra hidden folders.

Example Undesired Display:

IMAP Server
   INBOX
   {blank listing... probably the .}
   bash_logout
   bash_profile
   bashrc
   emacs
   gtkrc
   kde
   kde/Autostart
   kde/Autostart//Autorun
   mailboxlist
   Sent
   Trash

Preferred Display:

IMAP Server
   INBOX
   Sent
   Trash

I know I've done something wrong here, but I can't figure out how to get
Manage Folders to display just mail oriented folders. Can this be done?

Thanks,

Brett
