Hi Jos,
You're using IMAP. Is in both mailclients the mailpath correctly configured?

The issue is that TB doesn't say which MBOX it is. Thought that it might be de Trashcan folder (any name applicable), but file/folder rights are set valid. Also running the latest version of Dovecot.

question how long is the folder path
Thunderbird has a path limit that can kick in around 192 characters and will report different errors?
Outlook does not seem to have this issue

Running currently two local mailclients: Outlook 2021 and Thunderbird 102.4.2
When using TB and remove a message on my main account, I get this error: [CANNOT] Mailbox isn't a valid mailbox
On any other TB configured email accounts I can remove messages without any problems. First I thought that Outlook might block removal on messages, but the issue appears as well if I close that mail client.
Can you tell what is causing this problem?
