[Dovecot] Drafts, Trash, Sent
Hi, I'm testing a dovecot installation using thunderbird as imap client. The first user I configured has regolar folders: Drafts, Sent and Trash, and thunderbirs shows each one with its icon. The second user shows these folders with a standard icon, and I'm not able to save email in sent.
I cann't understand why there is this difference, and how dovecot manage these folder. Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot Roger

Don't think this is a dovecot issue...
Did you tell TBird to use these folders in the Account Settings?

Just guessing here, but do you use mbox? (Providing dovecot -n output never is a bad idea.) If so maybe the first user's folders are mboxes (folders for mails) while the second user's folders are directories (folders for other folders).

In the account settings, Copies & Fo9lderrs 'place a copy in: Other -> [server.com] -> Sent' and it will read 'Send on server.com' when your done rather that 'Sent on Local Folders'
