Your server is broken, if indeed it is possible to create the
"INBOX.gEDA-List" mailbox. Quoting RFC2060:
If the destination mailbox does not exist, a server MUST return an
error, and MUST NOT automatically create the mailbox. Unless it is
certain that the destination mailbox can not be created, the server
MUST send the response code "[TRYCREATE]" as the prefix of the text
of the tagged NO response. This gives a hint to the client that it
can attempt a CREATE command and retry the APPEND if the CREATE is
successful.
If you let me know what server it is (first line of output when
telnet:ing to the server) I'll put it on my buggy-imap-server list,
and commit a workaround in OGnus.
