I've got a problem with subscriptions in 1.0-stable when migrating from UW-IMAP.
I've modified the SUBSCRIPTION_FILE_NAME entries as suggested in the Wiki http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration and included the "~/mail/" etc. hidden namespaces.
The .mailboxlist files contain entries like "~/mail/somefolder" and the clients have "~/mail/" set as a prefix.
In UW-IMAP:
xyz LSUB "" "*"
- LSUB () "/" ~/mail/somefolder xyz LSUB "~/mail/" "*"
- LSUB () "/" ~/mail/somefolder
Now with Dovecot:
xyz LSUB "" "*"
- LSUB () "/" "~/mail/somefolder" xyz LSUB "~/mail/" "*"
- LSUB () "/" "~/mail/~/mail/somefolder"
In other words, Dovecot is prepending the namespace to the list of folders stored in .mailboxlist.
This causes Thunderbird to show the folders as -~
- mail | somefolder
which are accessible. Squirrelmail gets completely confused and tries to display "~/mail/~/mail/somefolder" (but works with the prefix set to "").
Am I missing something? I tried Geo's empty namespace patch, just in case that would help, but it didn't.
Best Wishes, Chris
