HI,
could you please explain me briefly how the subscription to imap folders work?

I thought the subscriptions setting could be different for each client used to access the Imap account and stored locally on the client itself and not a unique setting stored on the Mdaemon server.

This is because I noted that if I subscribe/unsubscribe a folder from, let's say, Outlook, the setting is riflected to Worldclient folders too.

I ask this because some users working from a slow connection at home prefare setting their home PC to sync only essential folders while mantaining the Outlook at the Office set to sync all folders. Thanks

IMAP subscribed folders are configured per account. Each IMAP client that connects uses the same subscribed folder list.
