Using builds 2000101211m13 on win98, 2000011212m13 on linux and 2000011208 on Mac IMAP special folders are not being recoginzed as special folders. 1. They don't have the special folder icon when listed in the Folder pane or any menupopup. 2. They are not listed at the top of the menupopup for Account Setup|Copies and Folders or the Move|Copy menus

moving to m14. adding david and scott to the cc list. something to note, given that have multiple identities, and each identity has its own copies and folders prefs, we can have multiple special folders.

I can take this if you want. First of all no special folders are being listed at the top of any menus so it's not just IMAP. At the time when I tried it, you couldn't sort menus. Now we should be able to. Second, Imap special folders are being recognized in the folder pane which you can tell because they are being sorted to the top. We just don't have a special icon for them yet.

accepting for now, but I may re-assign.

On my system, my POP folders are listing the Special Folders first and they have the specila icon. This is in all views Folder pane, Account Setup and menu items Move Message|Copy Message.

You're getting lucky. It's not that way on my system.

scott has offered to take this from me.

this got fixed when I checked in the new icons. Just so this doesn't get reopened for this reason, currently the UI spec has the Drafts, Templates, Sent, and Unsent Messages folders looking like regular folders instead of having special icons. The only ones that show up as special are the Inbox and Trash folders.

The Inbox for a POP account is considered a special folder in the spec, but the icon is not a special icon. Reopening this to include POP inbox, if you prefer a new bug, mark as fixed again and add comment. Changing the summary to reflect POP too.

I just checked a new profile and the POP account Inbox icon is showing as a special folder. I have to investigate more to find out the scenario when the Inbox is not showing as a special folder. Leaving reopened for the day to see if I can find the scenario, then I will resolve and verify as fixed if I can't find one.

After investigating I found the POP account on some of my profiles on both Win98 and linux display the Inbox with an open folder icon. I can reproduce this on a POP migrated account after logging on then collapsing the server, the expanding it again the open folder icon displays. However when I close the app, then relaunch the correct icon is back and stays put during several expand and collapse tests. Resolving this bug as fixed again and will do more testing to find a simple test scenario for the icon changing.

Now verifying.
