Re: Bug Report: Missing parent folders will cause some clients to not retrieve messages

You are not alone with this one! The issue easily occurs with Sieve with "fileinto :create". I have had to use a combination of ugly Sieve and additional server-side fixup scripting via cron to fix this condition.

I have reported it, uh, somewhere. The issue is recognized. I can't tell you what the status is, whether it's labelled as a Dovecot issue or Sieve. Sorry.
