I've noticed a change since Dovecot was upgraded. I used to reorder items within my INBOX in al/pine by "saving" messages back to the INBOX, which I was connecting via IMAP
I can "S"ave a message from INBOX to INBOX and a message from another
folder to the INBOX just fine. But I use Dovecot v1.0.13.I notice the same thing than Jonathan, when using mbox format. No problem with maildir format.
I forgot to write:
this is with dovecot 1.1.2
this is not specific to INBOX: when saving a message from a folder to the same folder, Alpine complaints with the message [Can't copy mails inside same folder ]
the debug journal of Alpine shows, with a 'news' folder:
IMAP DEBUG 09:46:05 8/20: 0900000b COPY 100 news IMAP DEBUG 09:46:05 8/20: 0900000b NO Can't copy mails inside same mailbox
a quick grep shows this is 'normal' behaviour, as written in src/lib-storage/index/mbox/mbox-save.c
if (mbox->mbox_lock_type == F_RDLCK) { /* FIXME: we shouldn't fail here. it's just a locking issue that should be possible to fix.. */ mail_storage_set_error(storage, MAIL_ERROR_NOTPOSSIBLE, "Can't copy mails inside same mailbox"); return -1; }
