If I use LAYOUT=fs (as I'd prefer) I get an error because I have a mailbox called "subscriptions", and none of my messages convert. Is there a way to get dovecot to put its own metadata in dotfiles instead?
(I guess I can rename my mailbox too :-)
Besides the :SUBSCRIPTIONS=, you could also have put all mailboxes under another directory, like with ":MAILBOXDIR=mailboxes" the subscriptions mailbox would be in "mailboxes/subscriptions".
% dsync mirror mbox:~/Mail dsync(nriley): Error: read() failed with subscription file /home/nriley/Maildir/subscriptions: Is a directory dsync(nriley): Error: Can't update subscription +/INBOX: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. [2010-10-21 20:17:55] [...]
Also, what "server log" is it referring to above?
Well, it means the error message just above it. Maybe this error message could be changed when running standalone programs..
