#1 Folders must be a subfolder of inbox

[Mark Hobley]

There is a bug in bincimapd, which causes new folders to be a subfolder of inbox:

-+ mark
- Inbox
-+ Local Folders
+- Unsent
+-- Trash

I want to create a subfolder "Processed" as follows:

-+ mark
- Inbox
- Processed
-+ Local Folders
+- Unsent
+- Trash

I apply a rightclick mouse event to my username (mark), and then
Menuitem: New Folder, Prompt: Name> Processed, Prompt: Create as a
subfolder of> mark, Button: OK

No "Processed" subfolder appears.

If I apply the rightclick mouse event to the Inbox folder, I can create
"Processed" as a subfolder of "Inbox":

-+ mark
- Inbox
+- Processed
+ Local Folders

Examining the mailserver directory structure, the Processed directory
appears to be in the place:

cd ~/Maildir
tree -ad
.
|-- .Processed
| |-- cur
| |-- new
| `-- tmp
|-- cur
|-- new
`-- tmp

The problem appears to be with the way that this is presented to the
client side. I found an article on the bincimap website as follows:

Using Maildir++, all folders in Binc IMAP must be subfolders of INBOX.
This is the default setting. For some graphical IMAP clients, this means
you need to right click on INBOX and select "Create subfolder".

A fix to the software is required to remove the requirement for new folders to be a subfolder of INBOX.
