- ville--- via dovecot:
what could be the reason that in Postfix, Dovecot, Thunderbird client setup no Sent Items folder is created on the server as a first mail is sent on the newly created account.
Is there documentation stating that Thunderbird is supposed to create a "Sent" folder on the IMAP server, or are you just making this assumption based on what Apple Mail or other MUAs do?
If you want to ensure that "Sent" is created on a Dovecot server, I suggest you configure Dovecot to do that automatically instead of relying on MUA behaviour.
