[Dovecot] customflags considered a folder?
Hello,
i just switched from courier-imap to dovecot on a machine. The transition was painless except for one issue - when using the "Check mail" feature of kmail, one gets the message:
"Unable to get information about folder customflags. The server replied: internal error..."
So it looks like the server isn't properly hiding the .customflags file for some reason. I googled and only found one person who had seen something similar, but no solution.
This is with dovecot 0.99.10.5. Similarly, 'customflags' does show up as a folder when using mutt.
How would I go about preventing this problem?
Thanks!

Actually, it seems this didn't solve it (unless the Deban package is broken? I haven't tried the FreeBSD port yet). Dovecot is upgraded and restarted. .customflags is removed, only to be recreated by dovecot and it still shows up as an IMAP folder.

Well, I did add code to check it, and it is working with me.. Maybe your IMAP client is caching the folder list locally?

Nope. I "double-checked" with mutt, which never caches anything, and customflags was still there.
I will investigate further though and make noise if I don't solve it. ;)
Thanks!
