Ok,
I am playing around with dovecot and things are running relatively
smoothly. I am using Outlook as that is what the client uses for
Email. I can copy messages to and from the IMAP folder. I can create
folders from the root directory fine.
My question is this.
I have folders like this:
IMAPServer
--Inbox
--Trash
--WorkToDo
Now when I try and create a subfolder in "WordToDo" I get an error
message "Unable to create the folder. The server responded: 'Mailbox
doesn't allow inferior mailboxes'
When I try to create a subfolder in "Inbox" I get an error message
"Unable to create the folder. The folder 'Inbox' cannot contains
subfolders..."
So is this a limitation of Dovecot? Another problem with Outlook? Or
do I have some configuration problem on my end?
Thanks.

PS: My first impressions of dovecot are very positive. It is a much
cleaner and, so far, easier to handle IMAP server than the heavyweight
UW & Cyrus IMAP servers. Congrats on a impressive program.
