[Dovecot] Problems to sync
Dovecot 1.1.2 Good afternoon,
I installed dovecot to work with Exim....my dovecot.conf is like this:
#Protocolos suportados protocols = imap
log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-info.log
#Desabilitar SSL ssl_disable = yes disable_plaintext_auth = no
first_valid_gid = 0
mail_location = mailbox:/usr/home/%u/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
mail_access_groups = mail
protocol imap { login_executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap login_greeting_capability = yes }
#Otimizacao dotlock_use_excl=yes maildir_copy_with_hardlinks=yes
auth_verbose = yes auth_process_size = 256 auth_cache_ttl = 3600
auth default { mechanisms = plain user = root ssl_require_client_cert = no passdb pam { } userdb passwd { } }
The problem is that I get to sync with INBOX, but I can't get to sync with the other files...
I don't know if this line is correct:
mail_location = mailbox:/usr/home/%u/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
If I create a new file by the outlook, this file is created in the server normally.....
If someone could help....thanks...

It looks as if the INBOX parameter is correct, since you see the inbox. Since you said you used Outlook, did you try updating your folder list, or going into IMAP folders setting?

Is this really how you set it? mailbox: is not a valid setting I don't think. The wiki says it should be either Maildir or mbox:

I changed to mbox but doesn't work.... I changed the line to:
mail_location = mbox:/usr/home/%u/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u

Always show dovecot -n output, so we know that dovecot is using what you *think* it is using.

any reason you're using
/usr/home/%u/mail
instead of just
Not sure if thats your problem, but...
