I, as the administrator, should have known better, but I don't expect my end-users to know anything about IMAP at all. They just get the credentials to enter into their MUAs and shouldn't have to worry about anything else. > > This is not what I call "user-friendly". > Do you have a better way of managing folder subscriptions?

I was just confused by the way different versions of, e.g. Thunderbird, handle subscriptions.
