[Dovecot] Bug Report in Connection...

Hi,

I've installed dovecot debian stable(from backports) version (1.0.15). Its great..i just have problem with sieve filters. I use only web tool for creating filters that works for me (avelsieve plugin for squirrelmail).

it creates rules, where specified folder has prefix INBOX. Thats fine.. Since dovecot has configured prefix INBOX too. BUT mails are delivered to INBOX.INBOX.test_folder

and thats ugly and not usable.

I've figured out new version 1.2 should work, but i dont like idea to install not stable version to production server.

Is there any patch or something for stable version?

Thanks a lot! Radim

well..thanks :)..but thats not so simple as it could seem..at least i didnt figure out how to do it :).

Squirrelmail does not allow to create folders without prefix. Anyway according to following mail it seems it could still be problem in dovecot

http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-September/025415.html

but its already more than a year..and it looks its still not working in 1.0.15 (stable on debian from backports)

Is it possible to patch stable version??

Thanks

ok..i somehow missed one sentence on dovecot wiki. Its written that namespaces are not working..so no sieve client can work correctly, right?

Any guess when will 1.1 be stable in backports for debian stable?

Thanks Radim

No. There's a configurable setting that creates folders under INBOX by default; however, Squirrelmail can create top-level folders and sub-folders of any folder.

ok..i guess i have said it not very precisely. Anyway that was not the important part of the question :).

problem is that sieve filters eg.

header :contains "Subject" "test" { fileinto "INBOX.a"; }

will move mail deliver(tester@imap): 2009-01-08 03:59:36 Info: msgid=<20090108025936.3BB551D31CB@localhost>: saved mail to INBOX.a

thats nice..but since dovecot is configured as it is. It appends INBOX to this. which means it forward mail to INBOX.INBOX.a ( i cannot change this configuration since all users already use it as it is)

So the problem is in dovecot..its clear from mail here http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-September/025415.html

Any hints what to do with that?? :)

Main question is, when do you expect that dovecot 1.2 will be in debian repositories.

Thanks R.
