Hello,
i try to use a new namespace with mbox parallel to my working maildir configuration.
With this i have a few interesting effects:
- dovecot doesn't use the CONTROL statement and generate a .subscriptions file at the namespace directory. The INDEX statement is used.
- dovecot can work with subdirectories even mbox is used
- I can't work with namespaces under Thunderbird till i have a mbox file manually there. an subscription or construction of a new mbox file isn't possible :-( but this seems like one of the (handling?) bugs of Thunderbird
- Why can't i delete a Folder at an namespace? Dovecot complains "Can't rename mailbox to another storage type". Probably this is only a config issue.
- if i use as the first character for the prefix an # like #Archiv dovecot dosen't recognize the complete prefix statement at this namespace. The output of "dovecot -n" is the same except the prefix statement. I thought # is a legal character? A folder can start with it.
Any ideas ??
Here is the output of dovecot -n :
[root@cac etc]# dovecot -n # /etc/dovecot.conf ssl_cert_file: /etc/pki/tls/certs/cac.is-a-geek.com.cert ssl_key_file: /etc/pki/tls/private/cac.is-a-geek.com.key login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_extra_groups: email dotlock_use_excl: yes mail_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugins: zlib mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 imap_client_workarounds(default): outlook-idle tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(imap): outlook-idle tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(pop3): outlook-idle namespace: type: private separator: / location: maildir:/srv/imapd/user/%u/maildir inbox: yes namespace: type: public separator: / prefix: Public/ location: maildir:/srv/imapd/shared/public/maildir:CONTROL=/srv/imapd/user/%u/shared-settings/public/control:INDEX=/srv/imapd/user/%u/shared-settings/public/index namespace: type: public separator: / prefix: Archiv/ location: mbox:/srv/imapd/shared/archiv/maildir:CONTROL=/srv/imapd/user/%u/shared-settings/archiv/control:INDEX=/srv/imapd/user/%u/shared-settings/archiv/index auth default: passdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: static args: uid=600 gid=600
