I'm using mozilla 1.2 to read my trilug mail. I've created a folder,
and now I want to get rid of it.
Mozilla won't let me do it ( 'Trash Already Exists'), so
i sshed into trilug, and deleted the folder with pine. Pine
no longer sees the old folder.
Mozilla still sees it.
I deleted the account with mozilla, and re added it. Mozilla still
sees the old folder.
I deleted the account again, and then went into the mozilla
file structure and found there were still old filenames
with the bad folder's name in it:
file: MythTV.msf ( imap folder name MythTV )
directory : ~/mozilla-brettb/brettb/gmzfbpjq.slt/ImapMail/trilug.org
After deleting the account, I got rid of the trilug.org directory,
and then re added the trilug.org imap account. guess what?
Mozill still sees the old folder.
Pine doesn't see the folder.
I cannot find 'mythtv' anywhere else in mozilla filenames for files.
has anybody else ran into this? use imap/ create a folder/ then
try to delete it.
