Viewing mailboxes in nested folders

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am not sure if perhaps this is already there and I could not find it in the 
manual.

I use offlineimap to syncronize my messages. My maildir directory  has the 
following structure:

~/Maildir/[mailboxes at root]
          /personal/[other mailboxes]
          /home/[other mailboxes]
          /office/[other mailboxes]

Using mu4e, I can search and see all my messages, from all the mailboxes (even 
those in subfolders). But when I try to [j]ump to a mailbox in a subfolder, say 
~/Maildir/home/INBOX, I can't.  Only mailboxes at the root of Maildir are 
displayed; if I try to type the path, mu4e seems not to recognise it.

Since mu4e knows about those mailboxes in the subfolders, how can I jump to 
them in order to browse them? Do I have perhaps to individually list them in a 
config file?

Indeed, the list of maildirs did not recurse into nested ones - maybe because I 
didn't needed that when I wrote the code ;) However, I have updated the code 
now traverse into sub-maildirs as well.

Does that work for you?

I cloned the repository at https://github.com/djcb/mu but I was unable to 
install it. I tried to use just mu4e, but Emacs complained about mu4e-meta not 
being available.

Knowing your coding, I am sure it is working though :)

I will wait for the official new release.

Thank you!

PS: Since you are keeping the code at GitHub, have you considered using the 
issue queue there as well, instead of Google Code?

Ah, I fixed that now, thanks. And I'm using the github issue queue as well, so 
feel free to file issue wherever you want :)

If i will have the chance, I will definitely use GitHub's issue queue.

(For some reason, having to login to Google makes me uncomfortable).

Perhaps in the future you could consider moving the introducion page (right now 
at http://code.google.com/p/mu0/) to Github as well, so to keep everything in 
one place?

Github not only allows a flexible presentation page - see for example: 
https://github.com/aziz/tmuxinator - but one can also host a whole web site 
there (I am not talking about the wiki part).

For example, if the manual pages would be hosted there as well, one could fork 
it and then send pull requests, to add tidbits to the manual (if that is 
something you would be into).

Mind you, not that I am so much into GitHub (I use BitBucket for most of my 
needs), but, imho, it is definitely a helpful platform right now.
