Hello,

There is the autocreate plugin[1], but the problem is that a user cannot delete those mailboxes. It can be a problem for people using clients in different languages and that want mailboxes in these languages.

I would be great if Dovecot could make some of these automatic mailboxes optional.

Cheers,

Hi fellow list members,

What would be the best way to add the .Sent,.Draft, etc. folders to the maildir tree? It seems not Dovecots task to do that but of the MUA.

I have seen several options. Use of skel but that works only for new system users. I have only virtual users preloaded in a database. I've discoverred that ONLY Roundcube add the folders (if configured to do that) but I've not been able to have the folders created by Thunderbird. Yes, you can manage the subscribtions to folders but there is no way to create them. I did not bother to try Outlook... MY users use pop3, imap and web (Roundcube) but I cannot ask them to use Roundcube first, just to create the folders.

I have no such thing as maildrop, which seems to be able to create folders. Should I run some script during login? How?
