Hi, I have installed Postfix + Dovecot 2.2.5 on a Fresh Arch Linux server (using Arch Linux repository packages). When accessing mailbox through Dovecot IMAP, all user mailboxes are in READ-ONLY mode.
Here is a snippet from IMAP telnet conversation (after successful login).
a LIST "" "*"
- LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." INBOX a OK List completed. a EXAMINE INBOX
- FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft)
- OK [PERMANENTFLAGS ()] Read-only mailbox.
- 1 EXISTS
- 1 RECENT
- OK [UNSEEN 1] First unseen.
- OK [UIDVALIDITY 1376459543] UIDs valid
- OK [UIDNEXT 2] Predicted next UID
- OK [NOMODSEQ] No permanent modsequences a OK [READ-ONLY] Examine completed (0.000 secs).
I can read the messages but trying to delete results in:
a uid store 1 +flags.silent (\Seen \Deleted) a OK Store ignored with read-only mailbox.
I have tried ALOT of different settings (mbox/maildir/acl) but nothing seems to help, also no error messages are found in any logfiles. I noticed from mailing list archive that Dovecot has had Permanentflags problem in the past, but bugs should have been fixed.
Is the bug back or is there something wrong with my configuration?
Best Regards Tommi
