Hello list,
I have a namespace called 'projects' which when clicked in Thunderbird (nonexistent in eM Client) yields the following error:
"The current operation on 'projects' did not succeed. The mail server for account user@domain.tld responded: mailbox doesn't exist: projects.projects (0.00 + 0.00 secs)."
The namespace is configure as follows:
# Shared namespace 'projects' namespace { location = maildir:/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/shared/projects prefix = projects. separator = . type = public }
This is the log: 1: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: Effective uid=89, gid=89, home=/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/postmaster 2: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: Quota root: name=ignore=Trash backend=maildir args= 3: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: Quota rule: root=ignore=Trash mailbox=? bytes=0 messages=0 4: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: Quota grace: root=ignore=Trash bytes=0 (10%) 5: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: Namespace : type=private, prefix=, sep=., inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location= 6: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: mdbox: access(/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/postmaster/mdbox, rwx): failed: No such file or directory 7: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: mdbox: couldn't find root dir 8: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: sdbox: access(/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/postmaster/sdbox, rwx): failed: No such file or directory 9: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: sdbox: couldn't find root dir 10: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: maildir: root exists (/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/postmaster/Maildir) 11: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: maildir++: root=/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/postmaster/Maildir, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/postmaster/Maildir, alt= 12: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: Namespace : type=public, prefix=projects., sep=., inbox=no, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/shared/projects 13: Apr 04 20:00:30 imap(postmaster@domain.tld): Debug: maildir++: root=/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.tld/shared/projects, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=, alt=
This did not happen with other versions of dovecot (I think) but just started happening with the upgrade. While it is not a serious problem and I can live with it, what would be causing it in the new dovecot iteration (2.2.23) ? And, could it be that I'm missing the necessary setting to mitigate this? Please let me know if any additional information is necessary.
I'm thinking that the problem lies in lines 6/7 and 8/9 where Dovecot is looking for mdbox/sdbox.
