But with the mdbox user, Thunderbird pops up an error:
The current command did not succeed. The mail server for account <accountname> responded: Invalid mailbox name: Trash/foo/.
See if imap_client_workarounds=tb-extra-mailbox-sep solves this.
(1) I have raised a getsatisfaction.com issue on this issue
http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messaging/topics/thunderbird_3_1_9_sends_...
(2) I was wondering if there would be any win possible by adding something into that error message like a teeny-tiny URL which pointed to a page which explained:
It's a bug in Thunderbird
The proper solution is to fix Thunderbird
There is a already a bug raised against Thunderbird <URL to bug>. The Thunderbird people know it's wrong, but they've just sat on the issue for three years, doing diddly squat about it
Go and pester the Thunderbird people. If enough people pester them, then it might be cheaper for them to fix it than to keep having to field questions from disgruntled users
In the meantime, there is a workaround in Dovecot which can be enabled thus <explanation of how to enable the workaround>
