Hi,

That happened to me too with Yahoo.

You only need to set the inbox folder (the blue with normal folder
icon) to inbox type folder. Right clic over it and set it in
properties. 

In some ways, this "bug" is similar as what I reported with
Hotmail/Outlook. There, it creates a new Trash folder. Here, it
doesn't "append" to the servers inbox to set as inbox. 

It won't be better to made this manually and let users set what is
each folder, but sometimes, as seen, let Sylpheed do automatically
creates this kind of weird behavior or problems. 

Regards.

P.S.: Hey, guys, am I the only one who, sometimes, doesn't receive
messages from this list (in any folder, they just don't arrive) like
this one? The only way I have to read and reply them is through
Gmane NNTP server :(
