Hi,

Is there any way to hide this folder from IMAP clients? I can see it is not runtime configurable and just #defined as LUCENE_INDEX_DIR_NAME in fts-backend-lucene.c.

you shouldnt see it, guess you configured something wrong like

i.e

maildir_stat_dirs=no (default): Assume that all the files beginning with a dot in the maildir are maildirs. You shouldn't have any non-directory files beginning with a dot in the maildirs, but if you do you may need to set this to "yes", in which case Dovecot needs to stat() each directory entry, which degrades the performance. Some filesystems provide the directory/non-directory status for free without having to stat(). In those filesystems this setting is ignored.

etc

i am not using mbox , didnt analyse your conf very deeply but my bet is ,your namespace and/or directory layout setup is the problem

perhaps reread

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MboxChildFolders?highlight=%28index%29

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/FTS/Lucene

Requires Dovecot v2.1+ to work properly. The CLucene version must be v2.3 (not v0.9). Dovecot builds only a single Lucene index for all mailboxes. The Lucene indexes are stored in lucene-indexes/ directory under the mail root index directory (e.g. ~/Maildir/lucene-indexes/).

so perhaps you need configure index directory seperate/extra setting etc

This is the same question I asked the list last week. There is no configuration directive listed on either of the two wiki pages you linked to above. My system is using Maildir with LAYOUT=fs, and my clients see the lucene-indexes folder as well, although it is not selectable.

My ideal case would be to move it to the home directory instead of the mail root directory, but I think the best option would be for it to be configurable similar to INDEXes, etc.

I can make an attempt at a patch, but it will take me a while to get up to speed on dovecot sources...

Thank you,

Greg
