My server is moving all tagged spam into the IMAP spam folder. Very nice for the IMAP users, but not for the POP users. Of course the server don't know, and the mysql database for users does not have any flags for this. Don't want my server to fill up with spam from POP users that don't know to check via IMAP.
You can contort the virtual plugin to fuse your user's INBOX and spam box together into a virtual INBOX:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual (See section "Virtual POP3 INBOX")This turns the problem from a delivery problem into a reading (or presentation) problem.
Seems sort of klunky though. In my opinion, your energy is better invested in converting your POP3 holdouts to IMAP.
Agreed. I am looking at what it takes to do this with Thunderbird, as I
am the biggest holdout! The recommended way is HARD. I have 20 years
and gigabytes of emails in local pop folders that I do not want to loose
or have replicated on the server. Somewhere is the magic goo for this.
Once I figure it out for myself, it will be easy for the other users.
