OL07: Can the systray symbol bring me to the IMAP inbox?

Hi there,

I have been using Outlook 2007 SP1 on Vista SR1 for a few days now and
configured my gmail account for IMAP use. I don't have any additional POP
accounts or anything. Now when new mail arrives, OL tells me by the pretty
envelope symbol in the systray. (According to my google searches, I seem to
be one of the lucky guys where this works!) But when I doubleclick it, I'm
taken to the general inbox which is empty ever since installation. Outlook
is configured to start up in the IMAP inbox which works fine when opening
the application. But when bringing it up from the systray, this setting is
just ignored.

Does anyone of you know what I could do to be able to do simple doubleclicks
again?

Thanks,
Yannick

I don't believe you can go to any folder except the default inbox when you
click the icon.
