I have a maildir structure that looks somewhat like this:

Archive
Archive/2023
INBOX
INBOX/low-prio
INBOX/high-prio
Sent
...

I'd like to have INBOX be open by default when I start meli but if I set root_mailbox to /path/to/my/mail/INBOX, I am no longer able to access the sibling mailboxes, such as Archive or Sent.

@iooioio there was a bunch of stuff I discovered that needed fixing when I went to implement this which is why it took a while. The PR #370 should be sufficient for this feature request.

@iooioio Did you end up getting it to work?
