Hi All,
I have the following problem:
When adding a new user with lots of folders, I realized that it can be that most of the folders are added with status "hidden". To avoid this, I wrote a little program which connects to the database and sets the flag "hide" in awm_folders to false. I can see the it works and in the database every folder is marked as "not hidden". But after login, awm_folders gets restored somehow and the folders are hidden again?! Where does WebMail lite (asp.net version) gets this information in order to restore the folder status? I double checked the database tables but I cannot find anything related to this!
Thanks,
Konrad

I understand you are speaking of IMAP fodlers, right?
The thing is, folders are added as hidden ones for a reason: that means they are not marked as subscribed on IMAP server.
Thus, the proper way for solving this is to change actual configuration of mailboxes on IMAP server. If you don't do
this, WebMail would re-read IMAP account tree and would discard any modifications you made on the database level.

Are you sure that these settings are server-side? I'm pretty sure that these are client-side settings. So, where does WebMail store this information?
Thanks,
Konrad

The "subscribed" thing is absolutely an IMAP feature, it is widely used as "hide/show the folder" switch, and
when WebMail is scanning folder tree, it checks the subscribed status of each folder. On next mail check or
folder tree reload, the status will be refreshed so any database changes in this regard will be lost.

Every IMAP client has an "ignore subscribe flag" option on order to show all folders. Does Afterlogic WebMail offer that option?
Thanks,
Konrad

That can only be done on source code modification level.
