folders ? a FAQ

[Pike]

Hi

I am missing the point somewhere. I don't see this in the FAQ.
If it all works, its probably obvious. If it doesn't, it's very confusing :-)

In the interface, I only have 1 inbox, no other folders appear, no 'subscribe' anything. 
IMP doesn't use the folders I created (~/sent_mail, ~/mail and ~/drafts)  by hand.

Here's the FAQ: What should this do :

/* Folder configuration */
$default->folders                   		= 'mail/';  // can i use more folders ? comma separated ?
$default->use_imap_subscribe        	= true;	  // subscribe to what ?
$default->show_dotfiles            	= false;	  // which dotfiles ? could i like see _all_ folders ??
$default->sent_mail                 		= 'sent_mail';   // where's the slash ?
$default->save_sent_mail            	= true;
$default->postponed                    	= 'drafts';   // where's the slash ?
[snip]
$default->user_change_folder        	= true;
[snip]
$default->user_use_folders          	= true;

Whatever it should do, it doesn't give me ... folders.



thanks,
