[Dovecot] Dovecot access imap folder via POP3
Dear All,
I use postfix and dovecot (1.1.11) combo with maildir format. I would have a question about dovecot config.
Can I confiugre dovecot to download mails from IMAP folders via POP3?
Now, mails can be downloaded only from .INBOX.
My dovecot.conf file: ....
mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. #location = mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir
inbox = yes
#hidden = yes} mail_privileged_group = mail ....
Thank you for any help, Janos, Vincze

POP3 knows only the INBOX. But there's the virtual plugin, which requires Dovecot >= v1.2.0. This allows you to 'map' one or more mailboxes to the INBOX for pop3.
