MfEfolders

What it does

Enables/disables Mail for Exchange synchronization on a folder by folder basis
(eg. disable spam folder sync)
Locally renames MfE folders
(eg. long folder names, specials characters)

How to install

MfEfolders can be found in Extras-testing. If you have it in your repository list, use Application Manager to install. Before uninstalling, be sure to re-enable the folders you will need later.

How to use

Use the checkboxes to enable/disabe synchronization of the selected folder. To rename the folders just change it's name in the edit box and press Save.

How it works

MfEfolders uses the qmailstore database directly (/home/user/.qmf/qmailstore.db) to set the Class parameter of the disabled folders to a value ignored by MfE and Modest. When renaming a folder, it changes the Displayname parameter of the folders. The changes should have no side effects, but YMMV.
Thanks for Vitaly Repin@Nokia for the ideea and tech info for this project.

Limitations

Please close the e-mail client before starting MfEfolders and also please make sure that Mail for Exchange is not synching.

Known issues

If the folder is synced (selected to be synced in GUI) but any of its parent not, it leads to not showing any messages from this folder in e-mail client.
