Hi Michael - no, they done.  I have a handful of users that *now* do - 
as they went and started subscribing - but that is only 240 out of 
~20,000 accounts.  All others have no setting.  Do you think I should 
populate them with a preference of subscribe 0 and see if that stops the 
behavior? 

Any  reason that it could start happening while forced off in prefs? Or 
how to force it, unconditionally, to not use subscribe when pulling up 
the list of the folders in the folders view, or using the list of 
folders the drop down selections?   I'm willing to manually change the 
code to force it if I have to -- for the quick fix -- but I've not found 
which library does it.   I'd prefer not to do that, though.

Thanks for any suggestions you have.
