Hello,
Due to Thunderbird's mailbox deletion problem I was able to remove a mailbox while keeping the subscription. This was hugely annoying as Thunderbird is totally incapable of removing the subscription, even though the mailbox is long gone. It took me a while before I found a work around: I had to actually log in and remove a line from the .subscriptions file. You will probably get the same problem when you manually delete or rename a mailbox.
So here is my feature request: please check for subscriptions to non-existing mail boxes and delete these when found.
I am not sure what events would be appropriate for triggering the check, but I am sure there are some.
Environment:
- Dovecot 1.0 rc15
- SuSE Linux 10.0
- Thunderbird 1.5
Regards, Erik.
PS. Thanks for Dovecot, it is the best IMAP server I have ever used.
