Without the default namespace defined I get "NO Unknown namespace." errors when trying to subscribe or unsubscribe folders.

It was a bug when tb-extra-mailbox-sep workaround was enabled. Fixed: http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2006-June/005709.html

The second part of this still seems to be the case with RC2... the LIST command ignores "hidden=yes".

hidden=yes only means it's not listed in NAMESPACE command's reply and that the namespace prefix isn't shown as a mailbox in LIST replies. Since the prefix is empty and you're listing the mailboxes from root, it shows the mailboxes as it should..

Correct way would be to just use one namespace and fix the problems related to it. Could you test with RC6 and show me what commands give the unknown namespace errors? Subscribing and unsubscribing worked fine with me. Although INBOX subscription causes some problems with LSUB.

I finally got around to testing this. I tested with RC7 CSV 20060924. And I am testing with just one namespace:

namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes }

I no longer get the unknown namespace errors. However, INBOX is listed twice in the LIST command:

2 list "" "*"

• LIST (\HasChildren) "." "INBOX"
• LIST (\HasChildren) "." "INBOX.RSS"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Sent"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Test"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.spam"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Trash"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Drafts"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.RSS.Kevin Minnick"

If I change the namespace's inbox setting to "inbox = no" it only lists the INBOX once, however subscribing to the INBOX gives the "Unknown namespace." error.

2 list "" "*"

• LIST (\HasChildren) "." "INBOX"
• LIST (\HasChildren) "." "INBOX.RSS"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Sent"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Test"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.spam"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Trash"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Drafts"
• LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.RSS.Kevin Minnick" 2 OK List completed. 4 subscribe INBOX 4 NO Unknown namespace.
