Subject [meli-general] Setting up an Outlook account
Date Wed, 16 Sep 2020 15:02:21 -0000
Hello,
I'm trying to set up meli to work with the Outlook account provided by my university and I am having some difficulties.

Here's the TOML (with sensitive info left out)
```
[accounts."Roberto@UU"]
root_mailbox = "INBOX"
format = "imap"
subscribed_mailboxes = ["*" ]
identity = ""
index_style = "Conversations"
display_name = ""
mailboxes = { "INBOX" = { alias = "Inbox" } }

# IMAP-specific options for this account
server_hostname="mail.uu.se"
server_username=""
server_password=""
server_port="993"

[composing]
send_mail = { hostname = "mail.uu.se", port = 587, auth = { type = "auto", username = "", password = { type = "raw", value = "" } }, security = { type = "STARTTLS" } }
```

1. Is there a way to obtain the folder structure for the account? Even though I have `subscribed_mailboxes = ["*" ]` in my configuration, I can only see `INBOX`. If I add an alias for any other folder, I get a warning message: `Account `Roberto@UU` mailbox `Sent` configured but not present in account's mailboxes. Is it misspelled?`
2. When trying to send an email I get this message in the log: `Failed to update envelope <gray3.c5a7a9tvm5cc@it.uu.se> in cache: Database hasn't been initialised. Run `reindex` command` Running `reindex` does not help and I am confident the SMTP configuration is correct.
