Describe the issue

Hopefully this is the correct place to file issues about the docs too? If not, where?


My coworker today encountered a greyed-out folder that she could not click and not see the emails within. I'd never seen that before and so checked the (generally excellent!) docs here:

https://docs.roundcube.net/doc/help/1.1/en_US/mail/mailview.html#mailbox-folders

That section doesn't mention anything about the possibility of folders being grey, and what that means. Would be nice if it did.


Next, I thought to check the settings section:

https://docs.roundcube.net/doc/help/1.1/en_US/settings/folders.html

It does mention grey folders. It has these 2 useful paragraphs:

"In the folder list, the right column indicates whether a folder is subscribed and by clicking the checkbox, the subscription for that folder can be changed.

Subscribed folders appear in the email view whereas unsubscribed ones are hidden and only visible here."

The first is slightly out-of-date: the checkbox has been replaced with the currently trendy iOS style switch.

The second is just wrong I think? Unchecked (meaning unsubscribed I guess?) folders do appear in the mail view, but greyed out. Apparently. At least I think that's what I'm experiencing...
