[Dovecot] Unusual behaviour
Hi,
I've just noticed something strange in dovecot 0.99.10.5. I created some IMAP folders from the command line (mkdir .INBOX.Folder1) as a different user to the owner of the mailbox. Obviously when I tried to view them via IMAP I got an error message, but the message to the client was "internal error[date time]" where date and time appeared to be the current date and time.
Is this correct behaviour?
Dovecot was running on FC2, and the client was Mozilla Thunderbird under Windows.

No: you created a directory. IMAP folders need cur/ tmp/ and new/ as subdirectories under the new folder directory.
