This is not really a priority issue for us, as we see that this could cause problems when used, so we are not planning on implementing this to work properly any time soon. Sorry.

Would it be possible to add the possibility in future releases that DIRNAME respectively FULLDIRNAME could be empty (and works properly)?

Hey Aki,
DIRNAME with empty value has no effect, just like with FULLDIRNAME. "~/sdbox" instead of "~/" doesn't change that..

Does it work better if you use
mail_location=sdbox:~/sdbox:DIRNAME=

Hey again,
sorry, but I have to correct me: Even with dot it's not working completely. The subscriptions file is not created and the dovecot-acl file has the wrong path, too.
:-(

Hey again,
I've found a working configuration: mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME=.
I use a dot instead of slash or empty value.
Now my folder structure looks like I want and Dovecot is working fine.
Can anyone (maybe even a Dovecot developer?) say if the configuration is okay? I've tried to check the source code, but I don't know C as good as it's needed for that.

Hey to all,
is it possible to get rid of the "dbox-Mails"-folder when using sdbox?
Currently my folder structure looks like this (I hope the output from tree would be formatted well): /srv/mail/ └── example.com └── user ├── dovecot-acl-list ├── dovecot-attributes ├── dovecot.list.index.log ├── dovecot.mailbox.log ├── dovecot-uidvalidity ├── dovecot-uidvalidity.5b3f746f ├── mailboxes │ ├── Drafts │ │ └── dbox-Mails │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ ├── INBOX │ │ └── dbox-Mails │ │ ├── dovecot.index.cache │ │ ├── dovecot.index.log │ │ └── u.1 │ ├── Junk │ │ └── dbox-Mails │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ ├── Sent │ │ └── dbox-Mails │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ └── Trash │ └── dbox-Mails │ └── dovecot.index.log └── subscriptions
I would like to let it look like this: /srv/mail/ └── example.com └── user ├── dovecot-acl-list ├── dovecot-attributes ├── dovecot.list.index.log ├── dovecot.mailbox.log ├── dovecot-uidvalidity ├── dovecot-uidvalidity.5b3f746f ├── mailboxes │ ├── Drafts │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ ├── INBOX │ │ └── dovecot.index.cache │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ │ └── u.1 │ ├── Junk │ │ └──dovecot.index.log │ ├── Sent │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ └── Trash │ └── dovecot.index.log └── subscriptions
My path configuration: mail_attribute_dict = file:%h/dovecot-attributes mail_home = /srv/mail/%d/%n/ mail_location = sdbox:~/
I have tried mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME= and mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME=/ but it doesn't work.
The first doesn't change anything. The second auto-creates the folders after first login like I want, but after next login they are greyed out and no longer accessible.
Is it possible to get rid of the "dbox-Mails"-folder? I want this because I don't like to have an unneeded deep folder structure. Or is there a good reason to let the "dbox-Mails" folder in my setup?
Greetings,
Hativ
