MF>  Hi *,

MF>  when I rename a folder in kmail from lets say "ZZTest" to "ZZTest2", it seems that the folder "ZZTest" remains on dovecot somehow:

MF>  doveadm mailbox list -u <user> | grep "ZZTest"
MF>  ZZTest2

MF>  doveadm mailbox list -u <user> -s | grep "ZZTest"
MF>  ZZTest2
MF>  ZZTest

MF>  In kmail the folder "ZZTest" is neither shown in the folder list
MF>  any longer nor in the "manage local subscriptions" structure.

MF>  Is that a correct an well known behavior?

MF>  At the moment I have 
MF>  doveadm mailbox list -u <user> | wc -l -> 388
MF>  doveadm mailbox list -u <user> -s | wc -l -> 1140

MF>  Client system is Tumbleweed with all the latest snapshots, server
MF>  has Leap 16.0 with all the latest updates.

MF>  I noticed that, because Outlook shows them all - the original

Since the rename caused a synchronization issue, wouldn't it be best
to change the Dovecot settings to resynchronize?

Best Regards.
