In my case when I tried to switch to IMAP+ the folders stopped loading
at all. Perhaps my server doesn't support it, but this leaves me without
the possibility to create IMAP folders via Evolution.

Using Evolution 3.2. in Oneiric.

Title:
  Can no longer create IMAP folders

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Recent versions of evolution took away the ability to create IMAP
  folders. This seemed to work with some versions of 3.x, but this has
  been broken for (at least) a few weeks. My IMAP configuration has not
  changed and I do not see any errors on the IMAP server.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. connect to an IMAP server (in my case, dovecot on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS)
  2. Right-click on the Inbox for the IMAP account (can also do 'File/New/Mail Folder' or 'New/Mail Folder'-- none work)
  3. select 'New folder...'
  4. At this point I am presented with the 'Create FOlder' dialog box, but under 'Specify where to create the folder' I only have 'On the computer' and 'Search Folders'

  Right now I have to create folder on the server for them to show up in
  evolution, but this is highly undesirable.
