Comment 13 for bug 204550

I tried using the latest nightly trunk build (which mapped to /pub/thunderbird/nightly/latest-comm-1.9.1), and was not able to access any folders other than INBOX in my imap account; thus I am unable to test this bug. The error I encountered was an Alert dialog containing the message: "The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded:invalid mailbox name .". My imap server directory is INBOX/ and personal namespace is "INBOX." (although "" also seems to work for me in T-bird v2). I also tried blanks for imap server dir. & personal namespace, to no avail.

update: after trying blanks, when I restored imap server to INBOX and left personal namespace blank I got my folders accessible, but all listed below the Inbox (changing this back to "INBOX." or "INBOX" doesn't seem to change this behaviour any more). Also, the Account Settings dialog started not closing when I pressed the OK button; I was able to work around this problem by using the X button in the upper right corner (changes I made did seem to 'stick').

On the plus side, I was able to test this bug since my test folders (although appearing as subfolders of the Inbox) are now accessible. The second tag which formerly disappeared as a consequence of the message being moved from one folder to another (both on the server) now remains intact. Also tested successfully with 4 and 5 tags.

Another issue turned up while going through this process: it now takes about 2 seconds in the Account Settings dialog to switch from the top-level account settings pane to the Server Settings pane (I tried the others and they're not nearly as bad). Has this issue already been filed?

Yet another issue: when I installed Shredder I didn't see any option to use a different profile - it just went ahead and attached itself to my existing profile.
