Hi Timo,
With v1.2 it's less ugly with virtual mailboxes. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual
But it doesn't sound like such a good idea to actually use. That just allows the POP3 client to easily download+delete all messages from all mailboxes..
thanks for the pointer, that looks like a nice option! How can I give the POP3 daemon give ~/Maildir/virtual/all (as per example) as main inbox?
namespace private { prefix = virtual/ location = virtual:~/Maildir/virtual inbox = yes } namespace private { prefix = inbox = no }
Then create ~/Maildir/virtual/INBOX/dovecot-virtual file
Can inbox directories be configured separately for POP3 and IMAP?
Yes, but it's kind of kludgy. What userdb are you using? Basically you'd have to make both namespaces have inbox=no and make userdb return namespace_1_inbox=yes or namespace_2_inbox=yes extra field depending on if the user is logging in with pop3 or imap.
