These flags are abstractions. It's up to the CamelProvider to give them suitable interpretations. Use CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_MASK to isolate the folder's type.

`CAMEL_FOLDER_NOSELECT` | The folder cannot contain messages.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_NOINFERIORS` | The folder cannot have child folders.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_CHILDREN` | The folder has children (not yet fully implemented).
`CAMEL_FOLDER_NOCHILDREN` | The folder does not have children (not yet fully implemented).
`CAMEL_FOLDER_SUBSCRIBED` | The folder is subscribed.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_VIRTUAL` | The folder is virtual. Messages cannot be copied or moved to virtual folders since they are only queries of other folders.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_SYSTEM` | The folder is a built-in "system" folder. System folders cannot be renamed or deleted.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_VTRASH` | The folder is a virtual trash folder. It cannot be copied to, and can only be moved to if in an existing folder.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_SHARED_TO_ME` | A folder being shared by someone else.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_SHARED_BY_ME` | A folder being shared by the user.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_NORMAL` | The folder is a normal folder.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_INBOX` | The folder is an inbox folder.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_OUTBOX` | The folder is an outbox folder.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_TRASH` | The folder shows deleted messages.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_JUNK` | The folder shows junk messages.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_SENT` | The folder shows sent messages.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_CONTACTS` | The folder contains contacts, instead of mail messages.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_EVENTS` | The folder contains calendar events, instead of mail messages.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_MEMOS` | The folder contains memos, instead of mail messages.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_TYPE_TASKS` | The folder contains tasks, instead of mail messages.
`CAMEL_FOLDER_READONLY` |
`CAMEL_FOLDER_CHECK_FOR_NEW` |
`CAMEL_FOLDER_FLAGGED` |

### Warning

`camel_folder_info_build` is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.

This takes an array of folders and attaches them together according to the hierarchy described by their full_names and `separator`. If `namespace_` is non-`NULL`, then it will be ignored as a full_name prefix, for purposes of comparison. If necessary, `camel_folder_info_build()` will create additional CamelFolderInfo with `NULL` urls to fill in gaps in the tree. The value of `short_names` is used in constructing the names of these intermediate folders.

NOTE: This is deprected, do not use this. FIXME: remove this/move it to imap, which is the only user of it now.

`folders` : | an array of CamelFolderInfo
`namespace_` : | an ignorable prefix on the folder names
`separator` : | the hieararchy separator character
`short_names` : | `TRUE` if the (short) name of a folder is the part after the last `separator` in the full name. `FALSE` if it is the full name.
Returns : | the top level of the tree of linked folder info.

### camel_folder_info_clone ()

    CamelFolderInfo *   camel_folder_info_clone             (CamelFolderInfo *fi);

Clones `fi` recursively.

`fi` : | a CamelFolderInfo
Returns : | the cloned CamelFolderInfo tree.

### camel_store_can_refresh_folder ()

Returns if this folder (param info) should be checked for new mail or not. It should not look into sub infos (info->child) or next infos, it should return value only for the actual folder info. Default behavior is that all Inbox folders are intended to be refreshed.

`store` : | a CamelStore
`info` : | a CamelFolderInfo
`error` : | return location for a GError, or `NULL`
Returns : | whether folder should be checked for new mails

This fetches information about the folder structure of `store`, starting with `top`, and returns a tree of CamelFolderInfo structures. If `flags` includes `CAMEL_STORE_FOLDER_INFO_SUBSCRIBED`, only subscribed folders will be listed. If the store doesn't support subscriptions, then it will list all folders. If `flags` includes `CAMEL_STORE_FOLDER_INFO_RECURSIVE`, the returned tree will include all levels of hierarchy below `top`. If not, it will only include the immediate subfolders of `top`. If `flags` includes `CAMEL_STORE_FOLDER_INFO_FAST`, the unread_message_count fields of some or all of the structures may be set to `-1`, if the store cannot determine that information quickly. If `flags` includes `CAMEL_STORE_FOLDER_INFO_NO_VIRTUAL`, don't include special virtual folders (such as vTrash or vJunk).

The returned CamelFolderInfo tree should be freed with `camel_store_free_folder_info()`.

The CAMEL_STORE_FOLDER_INFO_FAST flag should be considered deprecated; most backends will behave the same whether it is supplied or not. The only guaranteed way to get updated folder counts is to both open the folder and invoke `refresh_info()` it.
