dovecot - Apr 2022 - Weird status... " noselect"... why ?

a list "" * gives me this

* LIST (\HasChildren \UnMarked) "/" INBOX/2022-PERSONNEL/FOO2
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \UnMarked) "/" INBOX/2022-PERSONNEL/FOO2/test
* LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" INBOX/2022-PERSONNEL/FOO2/test
* LIST(\Noselect \HasNoChildren) "/"
INBOX/2022-PERSONNEL/FOO2/test/Location

As you can see there is " noselect " and with Thunderbird this is in 
grey.. Due to a bad manipulation. I wanted to create a subfolder and I 
wrote? "FOO2/test" when FOO2 didn't exist yet

Now " test" is grey and I cannot place anything inside..

I didn't see this at first sight and I've placed important emails in it,
that it didin't synch... and which? which seems to be lost :-(

a Repair didn't work out


How can I " revalidate " this folder ? without removing it ? ( hoping
to
get something in it )

Thanks

Hi!

A maildir folder is not recognized as one if it does not contain cur,new and tmp
directories. Make sure those exist.
