'''Attachments:'''
* Can't add attachments.
** DirectoryPermissionsProblem
** PHPenableUploadsProblem
* I can't download large attachments.
** LowMemoryProblem
* Attachments can only be so big.  Any bigger and they fail.
** AttachmentSize
* Internet Explorer acts weird when I want to download attachments
** InternetExplorerDownloads

'''Folders:'''
* I can't move/delete large messages.
** DisableTrashcan
* Can't see folders I had in another IMAP mail reader.
** MissingFolders
* My folder list is HUGE!  It is listing all directories on the server!
** FolderListWithUW
* My drop-down folder list doesn't contain any folders
** FolderListWithUW
* I'm seeing ghost folders in my folder list -- they really don't exist.
** GhostFolders
* Folders that have subfolders are sometimes not reachable (can't click), even though there are messages inside.  When I unsubscribe and resubscribe, they become reachable again, but now I have the same thing on my INBOX : When I click on another folder, I cannot go back to INBOX again, because the INBOX is not clickable in the folderlist.  Using an url like https://myhost/squirrelmail/src/right_main.php?PG_SHOWALL=0&sort=0&startMessage=1&mailbox=INBOX will open the inbox in another window, and other webmail clients can still select the inbox directly, just not squirrelmail.
**This problem occurs due to an if structure in left_main.php near line 386. I commented that and haven't found side effects yet.
** change line 386 to (it is documented in cvs) if (!$boxes->is_noselect || strtolower($boxes->mailboxname_full)=="inbox") {
* I can't rename a folder to be within a subfolder (ie: cannot rename {{mail/testfolder}} to {{mail/test/testfolder}}.
** Fixed by removing "substr_count($new_name, $delimiter) || " from src/folders_rename_do.php, line 41 (squirrelmail 1.4.5). Seems that the UW IMAP server uses '/' as a delimiter and squirrelmail considers a folder name that contain that delimiter to be illegal.  Makes some sense on one hand, but removes needed capabilities on the other.

** MailServerSMTPProblem
* Can not send mail.

* The time seems to be wrong.
