Can't subscribe to new folders
I was finally able to repeat my scenario. I have some nnimap-split-methods
that are designed to split into folders that do not yet exist. I am assuming
that the folders will be automatically created and would be subscribable.
1) Isn't it reasonable to be automatically subscribed to any folder newly
created as a result of an nnimap-split? This is not currently the case.
The folder, BTW, _was_ successfully created on the IMAP server as I
expected.
2) If I know that a folder exists (since I can see it via another IMAP
client), I would expect the 'U' command to show me the folder name when I
use auto completion. Instead, it only shows me the list of folders I've
alredy subscribed to. There are no entries in the nnimap-debug buffer
that indicate it even tried to query the server.
3) When I get the prompt from the 'U' command, it allows me to type in
anything and it accepts it. It does not validate the folder name until I
try to access it for the first time. This is probably a gnus issue not an
nnimap issue.
I have left myself with an unsubscribed folder that contains unread messages
so that I can play with this and help debug it. Let me know what you'd like
me to do next. Again, there are no indications in the nnimap-debug buffer
that it even attempted to query the IMAP server for the list of known
folders.
