[Dovecot] doveadm doesn't subscribe to public folders

[Emiliano Rago]

Hi,

I'd like to subscribe folder with doveadm:

doveadm mailbox subscribe -u rago public.Conferences

This command doesn't work, while it works with an ordinary folder.
However it's possible to subscribe to the folder with an imap connection:

1 login rago "mypasswd"
1 OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE 
IDLE SORTSORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT 
CHILDREN NAMESPCE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC 
ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES ITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS ACL 
RIGHTS=texk] Logged in
2 LSUB "" *
* LSUB () "." "INBOX"
2 OK Lsub completed.
3 SUBSCRIBE "public.Conferences"
3 OK Subscribe completed.
4 LSUB "" *
* LSUB () "." "INBOX"
* LSUB () "." "public.Conferences"
4 OK Lsub completed.

Am I doing anything wrong?

This is my conf, thx for help,
Emiliano
