Description Ben Damm 2004-09-14 02:28:56 UTC

Version:           1.7 (using KDE 3.3.0,  (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4 (Debian 1:3.3.4-9)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.7

After checking the "Enable IMAP resource functionality" checkbox in the Groupware tab of the Misc configuration group, KMail asks if I would like the folders created.

The problem is, the folders already exist in the IMAP account, which is connected to an Exchange 2000 server.  After the inevitable failure, an error is reported.  I shall screenshot the error and attach it.

Error message after attemping to create folders that already exist.

Note that in the moment before this errors appears, the icons for the
applicable folders flicker.

Did you select that exchange server's Inbox as the parent for the groupware folders?

Comment 3 Michael Leupold 2009-04-04 10:55:47 UTC

I can't reproduce on trunk r948809 using Exchange 2003. KMail properly detects that there already are groupware folders with the required names.

Comment 4 Dominik Tritscher 2009-04-11 15:06:56 UTC

Same here: Existing folders are detected correctly and used when setting up groupware functionality. I'm closing this bug.
