Hello, I tried to use the new autoexpunge for my Trash folders I had in 15-mailboxes.conf

mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash auto = subscribe }

(dovecot -n of the original config is below) and added just the line autoexpunge = 1h Just a short period on my test system. But it failed. In the log I see

Dec 18 10:54:07 irams2 dovecot: imap(ms2test): Error: Failed to autoexpunge mailbox 'Trash': Invalid mailbox name 'Trash': Missing namespace prefix 'INBOX.'

But in 10-mail.conf I have

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

So I changed the line "mailbox Trash" to "mailbox INBOX.Trash". I now have

mailbox INBOX.Trash { special_use = \Trash auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 1h }

Now it seems to work (Trash is emptied, log file is fine) but in the mail client I see two Trash folders. Once the normal one below INBOX and another one also called Trash which is under a new created folder named INBOX below the original INBOX Thus I have

INBOX INBOX.Trash INBOX.INBOX.Trash

autoexpunge seems to work, but this is not what I like to offer to my users.

Any glues ? Olaf
