Tittel: Outlook Express: Could not select 'foldername' on the IMAP server
Skrevet av: ATC på 27. ſeptember 2008, 18:24 pm

In Outlook Express, this is what a user will typically see:

my.server.name
 +- Inbox
 +- Shared
     +- UserA
         +- SharedFolderA
     +- UserB
         +- SharedFolderB

If he clicks on "Shared", "UserA" or "UserB" he gets an error message: "Could not select 'foldername' on the IMAP server. You might try refreshing your folder list to synchronize with the IMAP server." and "Invalid mailbox".

Note: This is a purely cosmetical problem, the folders that can contain messages (SharedFolderA and B) should still be selectable, or you have a different problem than described in this article.

File a bug report with Microsoft. Those hierarchy entries have a \Noselect flag, but their crapware is ignoring it, and tries to open them nevertheless.
