Re: mutt can't see imap folders (cyrus 2.2)



One thing that seems to have fixed it is to change the altnamespace
config to "no" in the cyrus server.

This appears to have something to do with the way mutt is reading
folders.

I'd rather keep the altnamespace on, so I'd be grateful if anyone has
some idea how to make mutt understand this layout the way some other
clients do.

TIA
