location = mbox:~/Mail-Archives
(the :LAYOUT=fs is unnecessary, because it's the default with mboxes anyway.) Made the above change as you suggested. That turned my namespaces into:
namespace private { separator = / prefix = "mail/" location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u inbox = yes hidden = no list = no # for v1.1+ }
namespace private { separator = / prefix = "mail-Archives/" location = mbox:~/mail-Archives inbox = no hidden = no list = yes subscriptions = yes }
Now when I open Outlook, I get nothing except the INBOX. I can't see anything else. When I go into 'IMAP Folders' and hit refresh, I see
the INBOX file, and the tree for 'mail-Archives', but I can't see any
files (mailboxes) within that tree, so I can't subscribe to anything.
The 'mail/' namespace doesn't seem to exist since it doesn't show up at all.
Checking Thunderbird, I can see and subscribe to anything in 'mail/', but like Outlook I can only see the tree in 'mail-Archives' but I can't see the individual files (mailboxes) within the folders to be able to subscribe to them.
It's probably a good use of namespaces, although it would be simpler if you just put archives under ~/mail/Archives/. That was done for remote backup purposes. This way we can backup the user's ~mail/ folder every night, and the ~mail-Archives/ once a month.
