greets,
I am quite sure I ask some faq here ... sorry, but I am confused by the many options and choices here.
What I want to do is:
I migrate lots of public folders from a MS Exchange Server ...
The customer wants that there is a "Public" folder containing all these hundreds of folders, the public folder should be visible for all the dovecot-users and all the subfolders should be automatically subscribed as soon a new user logs in.
What I have now:
namespace { type = private separator = / prefix = inbox = yes }
namespace { type = public separator = / prefix = Public/ location = maildir:/home/vmail/public:INDEXPVT=/home/vmail/public/index/%d/%u/index subscriptions = yes }
As far as I see from testing this doesn't yet work that way.
When I open the mailbox with eg. roundcube I see "Public" but nothing below it ...
Could someone please give me a good pointer here?
Thanks!
Stefan

I dunno if the "automatically subscribed" can be achieved.
namespace { type = private separator = / prefix = inbox = yes }
namespace { type = public separator = / prefix = Public/ location = maildir:/home/vmail/public:INDEXPVT=/home/vmail/public/index/%d/%u/index subscriptions = yes }

How does ls -al /home/vmail/public look like? This is _one_ Maildir storage, hence, all mailboxes have to comply to its naming convention: .mailbox1.sub1-1.sub1-2, ..., .mailbox2.sub2-1.sub2-1, ... . Do you have errors in the Dovecot logs?

oh, I have a mistake in my plans ;-)
I haven't yet moved the stuff in there fully, I see now ...
I synced the exchange-account of user1 to dummy@tld.com on the dovecot, including the "Öffentliche Ordner" ... this took until 1am or so and I haven't yet moved these folders to the correct location within "Public".
May I simply do a "mv /home/vmail/tld.com/dummy/.&ANY-ffentliche Ordner* /home/vmail/public" ?

synced some folders, yes, now they show up.
I am unsure about the "subscriptions" parameter and how to achieve that all the subfolders are visible/subscribed from the start.

I solved my problem with syncing the "Public Folders" from the exchange server, that looks good and I also got the new public namespace visible for all dovecot-users.
What I still don't know and therefore would like to bring up again here:
We want that the whole tree below this new public namespace is always visible for all the users. As if it were folders in a samba share, if someone creates subfolders in there they should be automatically visible to the other users.
Or explained in another way: the users shouldn't have to manually subscribe to each new folder ... the server should do that somehow ;-)
I expect that other companies/users have similar requirements so maybe someone could point me to a solution.
Thanks!
Stefan
