Hi list, here's the complete Problem for easy reading again. Can someone reproduce this?

I have a strange "ghostfolder" when using shares/%%n/ as prefix for shared namespace. If i swith only this setting to shares/%%u/ everything is just as wanted, only then the prefix is very long, so i would prefer the name.

dovecot --version 2.1.7

dovecot -n # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-14-pve i686 Debian 6.0.5 simfs auth_mechanisms = plain login disable_plaintext_auth = no log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%%d/%%n/Maildir mail_plugins = acl mail_privileged_group = vmail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / type = private } namespace { hidden = yes list = children location = maildir:/var/vmail/%%d/%%n/Maildir:INDEX=/var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir/shared/%%u
