I really can't figure out what's going on below with IMAP and Pegasus MAil
Timo, are you saying that the LIST "" "" is a valid command and dovecot should be returning something - or should I hit up the Pegasus Mail guys?
Other clients are functional, but none of them start a session with LIST "" ""
Rick
BUT - If I connect with via Courier (port 144) first, get the folder list, then go back to dovecot Pegasus Mail does:
A2 LIST "INBOX." "*"
You could try creating Dovecot namespace with "INBOX." prefix to make it behave like Courier. See Wiki > namespaces.
I already have that (dovecot -n): namespace: type: private separator: . prefix: INBOX. inbox: yes
That's the only namespace I've declared.
Can Dovecot return * if it receives "" ?
No. LIST "" "" means that the client wants to know the hierarchy separator. Did you perhaps change that and Pegasus gets confused?
No, I don't regularly run Pegasus, but I have tested it in the past. It worked in the past. I think it worked before because the previous connection with Courier had already gotten the folder list, so Pegasus already had something to work with. It seems like it's using LIST " "" to at least begin getting the folder list, and can't. Once I have a list, it seems to work.
