In the existing system I can see IMAP folders that are in ~/mail/ with many mail clients (e.g. Thunderbird, Outlook, Seamonkey and horde). These folders are presented in the client software as being at the same level as the inbox - i.e. not inside the folder "mail"
On the new system, horde webmail shows the other folders in ~/mail/ as being at the same level as the inbox. But ... all the other mail clients above now show a folder (directory) called mail with the imap folders inside.
Is there some way to set this up so these other mail clients see the imap folders in ~/mail/ as being at the same level as the inbox as we have on the old server?
Basically, you need to use the mail_location in dovecot.conf, as such: mail_location = mbox:~/mail
You might also need to check the files ~/.mailboxlist, used by UW-IMAP, and ~/mail/.subscriptions, used by Dovecot. They contain the list of subscribed directories, relative to the root defined. For me, they were identical enough that I simply did a hardlink from one to another.
