/NOSELECT mailboxes. My ISP doesn't give any support for maintaining
the folders, I just would like to know if you had any idea how to
delete those /NOSELECT mailboxes, or how to modify their attributes to
be able to delete them. I tried with telnet, but I'm stuck.
Thx
than to keep those folders in my list for ever?

the installation or if it's an application problem:
- go the folder navigator
- create a new folder, name it "test"
- I renamed this folder, but make a mistake and type an already
existing folder name: I get the following message:
Renaming "test" to "INBOX" failed. This is what the server said:
RENAME failed: Can't rename INBOX/test: mailbox INBOX already exists
- I decide to delete the "test" folder, unsuccessfully, I get the
following message:
"The folder "test" was not deleted. This is what the server said:
DELETE failed: Can't unlink
/var/qmail/maildir/my_provider/b/10/30d/my_account/INBOX/test/.uidvalidity: No
such file or directory"
- I try again:
"The folder "test" was not deleted. This is what the server said:
DELETE failed: Can't delete mailbox INBOX/test: no such mailbox"
After those operations, the folders created this way are not
accessible, and can never be deleted, they remain in the folders tree
for ever, as non-mailbox folders (see the attached pic). What can I do?
