[Dovecot] namespace trouble
I am having some trouble with dovecot 1.2.12 and some namespace issues, or at least that's what I think is the issue. I setup a virtual mailhosting using mysql and postfix. I can receive email and send email without a problem, but when I use mutt to sign in to dovecot, I can't list any Folders, it see's INBOX but it doesn't see any mail. I generally try to not post my problems online, but I searched around on the Internet and I couldn't find anything similar to this issue. I also used kmail to connect to the and it is able to see the mail, but when I can't create any folders. mutt connecting option: mutt set spoolfile=imaps://server.here/INBOX."
Here is the mutt debug (mutt -d 3) 4< a0001 OK Capability completed. 4< * LIST (\Noselect) "." "" 4< a0002 OK List completed. 4> a0003 STATUS "Drafts" (MESSAGES) a0004 SELECT "INBOX" 4< a0003 NO Unknown namespace. 4< * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft)
dovecot.conf (part of it, tell me if you want more) mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes hidden = no list = yes } listen = * protocol imap { } protocol pop3 { } protocol lda { log_path = /home/vmail/dovecot-deliver.log auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master postmaster_address = postmaster@.com mail_plugins = sieve global_script_path = /home/vmail/globalsieverc } auth default { mechanisms = plain userdb static { args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes } Thank you Very much.

Apparently this doesn't work, because
4> a0003 STATUS "Drafts" (MESSAGES)
It should be doing STATUS INBOX.Drafts.
namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX.
Or you could just remove the INBOX. prefix.
If it still doesn't seem to work, use http://wiki.dovecot.org/TestInstallation to figure out if the problem is on Dovecot's side or the client's side.
