Hi Timo,

However, I have this nagging problem with most of the thunderbird MTAs. When I try to delete some "test" messages I sent to make sure that everything works, it comes back with the following message on the bottom of the Thunderbird window : "The current operation on InBox did not succeed. The mail server for account "Account@bloomingdomain.gr" responded [TRYCREATE] mailbox doesn't exist : Trash"
That error probably happens when deleting a message.
Yes, it does Timo. Thank you.
Dovecot v1.2.15 AFAIK Actually it's v1.2.16
dovecot -n output would have helped. Mainly: do you have a namespace prefix or not? That's about the only thing I can think of related to that error message (e.g. dovecot has non-empty namespace prefix, while TB has empty namespace prefix).
Why do I keep forgetting this ? Damn the gods :-) !@#$
:-)
Here's the output of "dovecot -n" :

I suspect it's some freak thunderbird bug. It's the only explanation. I've migrated about 20 mailboxes and it's the only one acting up.
Thanks again Timo,
