This part I've solved.  If you create the folders directly under the dimap 
account you can't import your calendar.  If you create them under the 
dimap.inbox you can.

I now have 751 entries in my new calendar account.  However, the folder icons 
which looked like Martin's have reverted to simple mail-style folders.  On 
the server at least the calendar will display the dimap calendar.  Now for a 
client box.

Well, the account is set up and the folders set up - BUT - the default is for 
every folder to be subscribed.  Many thousands of messages are being pulled 
in and the cpu is at 97-99%.  I daren't even look at the calendar until this 
stops.

OK - I have asked for a calendar from an IMAP server to be added, but it is 
empty.  How do I collect the calendar from the server?

I'm assuming that the 'Enable IMAP resource functionality' is for the server 
only?  Otherwise it want to create a new set of folders, and the folders were 
already created by doing a mail check.

I've just done another mail check and it said it was synchronising the 
calendar, but it still looks empty to me.
