Hi,

A minor thing but it seems in 87.0b2 (64-bit) on Windows 10 within an IMAP account, when you create (or rename) a folder, it appears in the view immediately duplicated x3 time... see screenshot attached.

A restart of TB fix the issue, but ideally it should not happens.

Message can be moved properly in any of the three folder they all contain the same data...

Likely a view refresh issue of some sort...

Regards,

Thanks for the report Richard.
Do you have multiple folder modes enabled when this problem appears?

Yes I do indead:

• Favorites
• Unified
• All (default)

Thanks for confirming.
Indeed, as I suspected, the folder tree generates a folder the number of times related to the folder modes currently used.
I'll take care of it.

Found the issue.
We were calling the rebuild of the tree too soon and we weren't waiting for the Folder to be properly added to the remote server.
