I'm somewhat confused by the way one is supposed to navigate
folders/directories on an IMAP server. The mutt version I'm running
here (0.96i) seems slightly different from the other version I'm
trying (1.1i) but both have now confused me thoroughly.
Is there any way to go straight to an IMAP folder directory as opposed
to opening a specific mailbox? If I just specify the IMAP server name
as "{mailandnews.co.uk}" I get the inbox.
There also seems some confusion (to me anyway) when I issue a 'c'
command followed by a '?' to show a folder list. Sometimes I get my
local folder list and sometimes I get the IMAP server folder list and
there seems little rhyme or reason as to which I get.
Finally the IMAP server I'm using shows all folders as both folders
containing mail and as folders containing folders, e.g. :-
-> 1 IMAP Action
2 IMAP Action.
3 IMAP Anne
4 IMAP Anne.
[etc.]
If I open 'Action' I get the mail therein (as one would expect) but if
I open 'Action.' I get a folder list at the level containing 'Action.',
not the contents of 'Action.', is this a bug in the server or a bug in
mutt, or neither?
