[Dovecot] Trying to Hide Namespace - new configuration options?
Using 1.1.2
We have:
# default namespace namespace private { separator = / prefix = inbox = yes #location = maildir:/home/virtual/%h #Maildir }
# for backwards compatibility: namespace private { separator = / prefix = mail/ location = maildir:%h/Maildir/ #Maildir hidden = yes list = no }
The 'hidden=yes' seemed to do nothing but saw earlier in this list a reply to add 'list=no'. This has worked to hide all folder but we still have /mail/Trash showing and it refuses to go away even after unsubscribing.
mail/Trash appears when I set my email client to use folder prefix "mail/".
If i set the prefix to blank I only see my Inbox and Deleted folders. Interestingly it shows 'Deleted' not 'Trash'. I guess Thunderbird renames 'Trash'.
What other configs are there to try? Is there a list of config changes for 1.1.x anywhere? We were not aware of the list=no config.
Thanks, Daniel

Maybe this is a TBird issue rather than dovecot? The Trash is a 'special folder' to most clients, so it may be trying to force it somehow.

Looks like the issue was that before the list=no option was introduced the server had actually created a file on the server. After dovecot was fixed it could read this file but not delete / unsubscribe it. After manually removing all the bad entries on the server it seems to have worked.
Still - is there an written update somewhere with the new configs?
Thanks, Daniel
