mailbox in different filesystem

[Héctor Moreno Blanco]

Thanks for the quick response Steffen.

I mean that every user has its own mailbox to archive mails, in other different storage. Obviously, that namespace/mailbox will have subfolders (months, years, from...).
I'll check out how to do it with namespaces/symlinks.

Thank you very much.
Kind regards.

That depends on what exactly "ARCHIVED" is.

1) is it a "folder" of each user, check out namespaces or symlinks.

2) is it a mailbox with subfolders, check out public namespaces or create an user, where the mail location points somewhere else, e.g. via userdb or symlinks
