            Bug ID: 303248
          Severity: normal
           Version: 4.8.4
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Cannot create top-level IMAP folders (or move folders
                    to top level)
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: creideiki+kdebugs at ferretporn.se
          Hardware: Gentoo Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: folders
           Product: kmail2

Running KMail against a Dovecot 2.1.8 IMAP server, folders are shown as being
at the top level (which they should), even though they are stored under the
INBOX in the file system. New folders on the server (created automatically by
Procmail) show up where they should.

Creating new top-level folders through KMail is impossible. Right-clicking an
existing folder in the folder list and selecting "Add Folder..." creates the
new folder under that one. Right-clicking the account does not show that
option. Selecting the account and looking in the menu bar, "Folder -> Add
Folder..." is inactive (grayed out). Right-clicking an existing folder and
selecting "Move folder to..." pops up the folder tree, in which clicking the
account does nothing, and the top level does not have a "Move to This Folder"
entry (which is present for those folders which already have subfolders).

Reproducible: Always
