Build: Mac May 20 Seamonkey build (1999052008) installed on PPC 8500/150 OS 8.5.1 Problem: Only on the Mac, the product fails to discover all your IMAP folder. The only folder that it finds is the INBOX. Double clicking on the server name to collapse and expand the folder list does not force/find the other IMAP folders. This problem does not occur under POP Note: This problem does not occur on the Win32 May 20 Seamonkey build (1999052008) or Linux May 20 Seamonkey build (1999052008). Steps to reproduce problem: 0) Configure your pref50.js file for IMAP 1) Start Apprunner 2) Open Messenger through the Task menu The server name should be listed, e.g nsmail-2 3) Double click on nsmail-2 icon/name The Inbox folder is displayed but no other IMAP folder.

FYI: use to work!
perhaps an RDF problem? It works on Windows...
Well, just an update. Esther stopped by and mentioned she's able to see IMAP folders other than inbox, so I played further with my various profiles. I'm able to see other than the inbox on only one of my profiles -- that's one out of six, all tried with just one account (IMAP) in the profile. This profile has only one added/personal folder other than the defaults.
fyi, When I originally logged this bug, my IMAP server was zia.mcom.com which is a Netscape 3.x mail server. When I change to nsmail-5 (4.x mail server), I am able to see my folders, but I'm seeing some improper behavior when I access the folder. I am investigating...separately My next step is to re-test on win32 and linux and use the same IMAP test account.
In my last update, I sound confused...well I am...that's why I need to take a break before I re-test this bug. Test Account info: Account: test02 outgoing server: zia.mcom.com incoming server: zia.mcom.com email address: test02@zia.mcom.com password: "netscape" --- Account: qatest35 outgoing server: nsmail-5 incoming server: nsmail-5 email address: qatest35@netscape.com password: "Ne!sc-pe"

It happens on Windows, too, but you have to use a zia account. I just tested with the one that Peter listed. It looks like we're not doing an lsub "" "*" against zia. We do against nsmail-5, and we do against zia in 4.x. zia's capability: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 SCAN QUOTA LITERAL+ AUTH=LOGIN XSENDER X-NETSCAPE nsmail-5's capability: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ NAMESPACE UIDPLUS STARTTLS XSENDER X-NETSCAPE XSERVERINFO AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN I attached IMAP log file zia.moz.

Summary: [PP] Mac only - IMAP Inbox is the only folder discovered → certain servers: IMAP Inbox is the only folder discovered
Thank you Stacey for trying it out on Win32. (I'm not going crazy) I tried using the test02 zia mail account on the Win32 (1999052620) and Linux (1999052620) builds. On these platforms, the Inbox is the only folder found. On the Mac (1999052516) build, I used the 3qatest05 nsmail-2 mail account. All the folders were discovered. So far, it appears that if you use a 4.x mail server, you are more likely to see all of your mail folders than if you use a 3.x mail folder.

Jeff wants me to do this.
Target Milestone: M7 → M8
This is going to take a day or two to fix - there was a fair amount of code that didn't get ported.
fixed by porting over all the namespace code that we neglected to port before.
