Another Option
Authored by: googoo on Oct 11, '05 07:54:45AM
I found another solution (I can't remember where, though). Quit Mail. Go to ~/Library/Mail/YourImapFolder in the Finder, and get info on the folder Public Folders. Change your permissions to read only, and apply it to the enclosed items (under the Details section). If you would rather do this in the terminal, navigate to the IMAP folder and enter the command

% chmod -R u=r,go= "Public Folders"

When you start Mail, you no longer get those annoying messages about permissions and public folders.

I'm still getting an "examine" error dialog in Mail after I did this... which is too bad, because this would be simplest. :(
