Hello When I use my iphone to access my IMAP folders I can see ALL folders in my userland and not only those listed in .subscriptions file ... Anyone has an explaination of this ? Might be a security/confidentiality hole isn't it ?

You can complain to Apple. If you are lucky, you might get a rude response from Steve Jobs himself. Or you could look for another mail client that honours subscriptions. But I'm not sure if the App Store allows other mail clients that "compete" with the built-in one. -- /* * Buddy system. Hairy.

The iPhone mail application shows _ALL_ folders. As far as I know, there is no requirement that an IMAP client must only show subscribed folders, so it is not doing anything illegal.
