yes, don't know how that line got in there, probably some GUI conf tool.

I've corrected it, tried again and it still doesn't work. maillog:
Dec 22 01:10:50 marte imapd[5850]: imap service init from 81.196.83.211
Dec 22 01:10:52 marte imapd[5850]: Login user=marius
host=marte.biciclete.ro [81.196.83.211]
Dec 22 01:12:33 marte imapd[5850]: Logout user=marius
host=marte.biciclete.ro [81.196.83.211]

Evolution still remains on Connecting - scanning imap folders, and when
closed it says
Error while 'Scanning folders in "IMAP server marte.biciclete.ro"':
Success
:)

Do I have to do anything to setup imap folders? Google doesn't show
anything for this server-side.

thanks
