Horde: Adding Folders to Virtual Inbox

[davorg]

I have a (large) number of mail folders on my IMAP server. I don't want to check them all for new mail. I have half a dozen or so that I want to check for new mail. I'd like to configure Horde so that new email in those few folders appear in the virtual inbox folder.

I know it's possible to do this, as I had it working on an older server. But I can't work out how to do it. Reading the docs, they say that all I need to do is to subscribe to the folders. I've tried that and it doesn't seem to work.

Any advice appreciated,

Thanks,

Dave...

I've worked out the answer. I'll note it here in case it helps someone else.

In order to see unread messages in the Virtual Inbox you don't just need to subscribe to the folder. You also need to mark the folder as "check for new mail". I suppose that's obvious in retrospect :-/

Cheers,
