--- Comment #11 from Peter Lewis <pete at muddygoat.org> ---
Thanks for the clarification, AndrĂ¡s.

But, I'm not sure that KMail 4.9.2 follows that spec correctly.

Here's my test case:

1) I have a Maildir folder called ~/mail/Personal. Within it are cur,new and
tmp. Note that ~/mail is NOT a maildir, just a directory to hold maildirs for
different accounts.

2) I create an account using the akonadi Maildir resource in KMail, pointing to
~/mail/Personal. It shows the mails in the Personal account in the message view
correctly.

3) I create a folder in KMail, as a subfolder of Personal (right click
Personal, add folder), and call it Test.

4) The new folder is created as ~/mail/.Personal.directory/Test

According to the link to the Maildir++ spec you linked to, it should be
~/mail/Personal/.Test and everything should be kept inside ~/mail/Personal.

This appears to be a violoation of the spec to me. Can you comment?

Thanks.
