[Dovecot] pop3 index virtual question

8 Feb 2011


      Hi @ll, Timo, on 2.0.9
i have a user reporting pop3 leaving mails on the server does not work
as desired
i have
namespace default {
#  type = private
separator = /
prefix = ""
list = yes
#  hidden = no
subscriptions = yes
}
namespace virtual {
#  type = private
prefix = "virtual/"
separator = /
location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual:LAYOUT=maildir++
#location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual
hidden = yes
list = no
subscriptions= no
}
namespace real {
#  type = private
prefix = "RealMails/"
separator = /
list = no
hidden = yes
}
and
pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv
before it was pop3_uidl_format = %g ( not sure what best )
# Permanently save UIDLs sent to POP3 clients, so pop3_uidl_format changes
# won't change those UIDLs. Currently this works only with Maildir.
#pop3_save_uidl = no
my guess is that
location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual:LAYOUT=maildir++
isnt enough
should be
location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual:LAYOUT=maildir++:INDEX=~/
to store/use indexes in the local maildir which is physical under
/usr/local/virtual/domain/user@domain
any meanings to this
