Hi,

I wanted to create a virtual folder containing all unread messages and the threads they belong to, and this config works really fine:

dovecot.conf: namespace { type = private prefix = virtual/ separator = / location = virtual:~/Maildir/virtual:INDEX=MEMORY list = children subscriptions = no }

• -Trash -Trash/* -Junk -Junk/* -Drafts -Drafts/* -virtual -virtual/* all

virtual/New/dovecot-virtual: virtual/All inthread refs or unseen recent

virtual/All/dovecot-virtual:

The only problem I got is that scanning all files for the virtual/All mailbox takes too long, and I would like to keep them cached (no INDEX=MEMORY), so I thought I'll just put virtual/All inside a second virtual namespace. As it's a bad idea to open the All directory manually, I could also hide the complete namespace to the user.

So I added the following to my config: namespace { type = private prefix = virtual-all/ separator = / location = virtual:~/Maildir/virtual-all/ hidden = yes list = no subscriptions = no }

But sadly it didn't work, a directory virtual-all/ pops up inside my client (thunderbird/icedove).

Is hidden=yes/list=no unsupported for virtual locations, or is it me misconfiguring dovecot? If it should matter, it's version 2.2.9, or more specific debian 1:2.2.9-1~bpo70+1.

Thanks Moritz
