I have a folder in my Gmail Inbox which I can't delete using either Delete, and which isn't showing up in the Subscribe list. How do I delete it? It doesn't exist in my online Gmail account. I get an error message that the Gmail server can't delete an 'unknown source folder'.

I solved my own problem. Simply closing and reopening the Gmail tree made the folder disappear.

Correction: the folder I can't delete is in my Tbird Inbox.
