10.5: Keep 'Apple Mail To Do' off IMAP accounts in Mail

The hint does work. I've applied it, it went exactly as described, and now I don't have those folders. Maybe it doesn't work for you, but it DOES work. You'd be better off asking for help than posting a blanket "it doesn't work", which just sounds ungrateful to the original poster. It's not his fault if something about your system means it won't work for you.

10.5: Keep 'Apple Mail To Do' off IMAP accounts in Mail

@MacBerry:
I have followed the steps exactly as per the hint. I immediately see the IMAP folder in my GMail a/c after I quit Mail and restart.

Let me know if you did something different. Also I have two Gmail accounts configured on my Apple Mail and the Apple Mail To Do folders reappeared in both of them.

Thanks

I'm not sure. I have two IMAP accounts, one Gmail and one not.

I followed the hint, and found that the folder had gone on the non-Gmail account (I had deleted that folder using the account's web interface before restarting Mail), but not from Gmail. I just deleted the folder from inside Mail, and it hasn't come back.

As I understand it, this hint doesn't remove that folder, it just stops it being created by Mail when it starts, so you do have to manually delete the folder once.

Beyond that, I really don't know I'm afraid.

Mark
