"INBOX" under Sources in Mailmate

#912

I have an IMAP account with Fastmail. In Mailmate, under sources I have a mailbox labelled INBOX in bold under sources in alphabetical order where it would appear. This mailbox does NOT appear in the Fastmail webmail interface or in Mail.app on my Mac or the Mail app on my iPad. Why is this appearing in Mailmate? It does not seem to belong where it is. I don't need two inboxes for the email account.

Thank you.

    Under SOURCES MailMate shows you exactly what is reported by the IMAP server including the mandatory INBOX folder which is part of all IMAP accounts. The Inbox-folders under MAILBOXES are there for convenience unifying the Inbox'es of all accounts.

    I might some day make it optional to show/hide INBOX (and the other standard folders) under SOURCES such that it would behave like Apple Mail and many other email applications, but it's not currently high on my list.
