BUG mailboxaliases plugin not working with subfolders
The mailboxalias plugin is not working when subfolders are created, rendering its use quite useless.
It should work of course something like this. (then I would be able eg. to put my archive mailboxes on different storage, by just creating one symlink on archive (get it??;))
If there is a new mailbox created And in its path there is a folder/path configured in aliases plugin Get the original folder location of that symlink Create a new file with the original name + new subfolder name, in the same location as the parent And then create a symlink to that created file with
Thus not this
mailbox_alias_old8 = Archive mailbox_alias_new8 = Archived messages
-rw------- 1 xxx xxx 0 Dec 30 15:36 .Archive lrwxrwxrwx 1 xxx xxx 8 Dec 30 15:36 .Archived messages -> .Archive -rw------- 1 xxx xxx 0 Dec 30 15:40 .Archived messages.am-test
But this:
-rw------- 1 xxx xxx 0 Dec 30 15:36 .Archive lrwxrwxrwx 1 xxx xxx 8 Dec 30 15:36 .Archived messages -> .Archive -rw------- 1 xxx xxx 0 Dec 30 15:40 .Archive.am-test lrwxrwxrwx 1 xxx xxx 8 Dec 30 15:36 .Archived messages.am-test -> .Archive.am-test
And then if you fix this, you might aswell take this into account. Thus in case I already have a symlink on .Archive
-rw------- 1 xxx xxx 0 Dec 30 15:36 .Archive -> /home/mail-archive/userx/.Archive lrwxrwxrwx 1 xxx xxx 8 Dec 30 15:36 .Archived messages -> /home/mail-archive/userx/.Archive lrwxrwxrwx 1 xxx xxx 8 Dec 30 15:36 .Archived messages.am-test -> /home/mail-archive/userx/.Archive.am-test
Then your mailboxaliases plugin starts to make sense a bit, now it is not consistent in its naming and is only creating a mess.
