Hi Folks,
This may relate to one of the few problems I see with dovecot.
This had nothing to do with outlook; rather mutt or kmail.
A couple years ago, sendmail delivered my mail to
~/Mail/<user> and I could cd to ~/Mail and grep and find the
string(s) sought.
Dovecot seems to save its mail on my mailserver as
~/Mailbox/<dotuser>/*. What do I change in the conf file to
get rid of the directory DOT prefixes?
If there is any documentation on this, please point me at it?
tia.This means it's in the subscriptions file.
lylu APPEND "folder.with.dots and spaces and numbers" (\Seen) "30-Nov-2009 10:34:00 +0100" {280844} lylu NO [TRYCREATE] Mailbox doesn't exist: folder.with.dots and spaces and numbers
This means it doesn't really exist, even though it's subscribed.
On the maildir home (maildir:~/mail/), it's present the folder.with.dots and spaces and numbers and the same into the "subscriptions" file
Are you sure it's really in the ~/mail/ directory exactly the same? You could try also talking IMAP directly:
telnet localhost 143 a login user pass b list "" "folder.with.dots*"
Is it listed?
Anyway it should work fine:
a create "folder.with.dots and spaces and num1234" a OK Create completed. b append "folder.with.dots and spaces and num1234" {10}
- OK From: foo
b OK Append completed.
