Cannot sync 126 & 163 mails because setting up "Snooze" subfolder in mail folders is not allowed

Sync Issues
,
1

it doesn’t need a specific thing to reproduce this issue. I have tried to mannualy create the MailSpring folder like you said in #769, but I think 126 & 163 mail server do not support adding a subfolder in the mail folders, and that’s what’s causing the sync process to crush.

having the same issue here , my version is 1.7.8-13635bcf

(Originally posted by gbcbooks on GitHub.)

The problem seems to be that nested folder is not supported by 126/163 email, but mailspring are trying to create such subfolder. Is there any way that user can specify the snoozed folder in settings?

Thanks in advance!

Encountering the same problem in email.qq.com. Nested folders are not supported. I cannot create the folder manually. This brokes not only the snoozing feature but also the whole syncing process of the account.
