[Dovecot] Shared folders and subscriptions

17 Apr 2009

      Hi,
I've got a problem with user shared folders and subscriptions. When I try to
subscribe a folder, dovecot returns "OK Subscribe completed", but the newly
subscribed folder is not listed with LSUB:
a1 login test@example.com *******
a1 OK [CAP.....
a2 list "" "*"

LIST (\HasChildren) "/" "INBOX"
LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "#User"
LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "#User/markus@example.com"
LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "#User/markus@example.com/ForTest"
a3 subscribe "#User/markus@example.com/ForTest"
a3 OK Subscribe completed.
a4 lsub "" "*"
LSUB (\Noselect) "/" "#User/markus@example.com"

Dovecot is 1.2-rc3, namespace configuration as follows:
namespace private {
separator = /
prefix = INBOX/
inbox = yes
subscriptions = yes
}
namespace public {
separator = /
prefix = "#Shared/"
location = maildir:/var/spool/dovecot/sharedfolders:INDEX=~/Maildir/index/public:CONTROL=~/Maildir/control/public
subscriptions = yes
}
namespace shared {
separator = /
prefix = "#User/%%u/"
location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/index/shared/%%u:CONTROL=~/Maildir/control/shared
subscriptions = yes
list = yes
}
I tried without CONTROL= directory in the shared namespace, but that made no difference.
Contents of the subscriptions (with CONTROL=) file after subscribing:
ForTestUser

Markus
