It is remembering state of other items (Settings, Administration and so on) but not e-mail folders. Don't know if i'm clear enough, i'm talking about plus (+) and minus (-) icons next to the folders.

Had such a problem, too: http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/9909 But I could not really reproduce, so I couldn't give feedback. But I have to add, that I have no subfolders in my own mailbox. Instead I have got an shared mailbox, where horde won't remember the last open/closed-state. But what I found out, is that it works (sometimes?), when set tree_view=1.

Mon, 12 Sep 2011 00:57:32 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/10499#t67431 Michael, is this really supposed to work also for folders/subfolders ? 'nav_expanded' is set to '2' in my prefs.local.php (and not set in DB for my account). How to reproduce: create new folder and then create subfolder in it (so the folder will have +/- icons). Close the folder, logout, login and see it's opened again. Btw, this wasn't working also in previous major version of IMP, i was just ignoring it until now.

You are talking about the folders page in the standard view, correct? (The sidebar is overruled by cookie settings, so it may not display the same as the folders page). Mon, 12 Sep 2011 22:38:25 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/10499#t67463 Yes, I'm talking about left sidebar which is always visible (traditional view). It is not remembering only the mail folders, everything other is remembered correctly. Tue, 13 Sep 2011 18:18:08 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/10499#t67472 Now i found out something new. When i'm opening/closing folders in the left sidebar, it's state is NOT remembered. BUT!!! When i open/close them in folders page, it's state is remembered and is set also in left sidebar.

On load, the sidebar should match the current state of the mailbox in IMP. Otherwise you could end up with two completely different folder expand states in the two views. It can be debated whether this is proper behavior, but I feel the current behavior is a better compromise. I would really like to see a move away from using the sidebar to control folder navigation in IMP. This should really be done within IMP itself. If you do want sidebar folder navigation, you should be using the dynamic view. Tue, 13 Sep 2011 18:37:04 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/10499#t67475 Ah, so it's a feature :) Michael, i really like the sidebar folder navigation in traditional view but i just wanted from it to remember open/close states of folders. It's very confusing cos it is remembering states of all other items except folders (so one would except it will remember also folders). Why this cannot be done ?

From a code standpoint, the current expanded status is kept completely separate from the IMP expanded list (cookies vs. prefs).
