	Hi,
I wish I recall some detail about this. I think 3.58.3 contains the
change I vaguely recall, but I do not know for sure. Briefly looking
into the IMAPx code changes there had not been added anything related
since the 3.58.0, thus you might be up-to-date with the 3.58.3.

A better thing to do would be to figure out why the IMAP advertises the
folder as gone. Not necessarily the iCloud server is wrong, it can just
be they behave slightly differently than other servers and trigger some
bug in Evolution (or rather in libcamel in the evolution-data-server).

CAMEL_DEBUG=imapx:io,imapx:conman evolution &>log.txt

enables logging for all your IMAP accounts. It can be some LIST or LSUB
response missed the folder and the IMAPx decided that the folder was
removed on the server, thus it dropped it from its local cache and
advertised the deletion. I suppose you are subscribed to that folder;
the subscriptions are saved on the server.

	Bye,
