Hi all,

I'm trying to config a dovecot server on a debian-lenny box but I'm experiencing a problem that serveral users have on the net, but I haven't found any solution.

I'm trying to create nested dirs with my thunderbird 2.0.0.23 client but without any luck :( I can create dir in the root, but not subdirs.

have you any ideas?

here you can you see the small config and attached my full config
