User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050301 Firefox/1.0.1 (Debian package 1.0.1-1) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050301 Firefox/1.0.1 (Debian package 1.0.1-1) I've been struggling with Thunderbird, trying to make folders work. My server uses mbox, which causes all kinds of hell with folders. Apparently a folder is only allowed to have a subfolder if you append a slash to its name - in which case it's no longer allowed to have actual messages stored in it. What's more, there's a magic setting in the "Advanced" bit of server settings that configures Thunderbird to cope with this. Well, fine, but now I can't delete folders. At least, I can't delete my "magic" folders. Or to be precise, it seems I *have* deleted them, but Thunderbird can't figure that out. The folders I created persistently exist. The first time I deleted them, they went away, but as soon as I restarted Thunderbird they came back. I tried unsubscribing from them, but they still appear in my list. There doesn't appear to be any way to get rid of them. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
