[Dovecot] namespace problem / 1.1beta11

[ja nein]

Hi Timo,

I think I've hit a separator bug:

This is namespace query of dovecot and source server:

---snip---

* OK Dovecot ready.
1 login ...
1 OK Logged in.
2 NAMESPACE
* NAMESPACE (("INBOX/" ".")) NIL NIL
2 OK Namespace completed.
3 logout
* BYE Logging out
3 OK Logout completed.
Connection closed by foreign host.

Escape character is '^]'.
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ ID STARTTLS AUTH=CRAM-MD5 AUTH=DIGEST-MD5 AUTH=NTLM AUTH=SRP AUTH=OTP AUTH=PASSDSS-3DES-1 SASL-IR] Cyrus IMAP4 v2.3.8 server ready
1 login ...
1 OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ ID LOGINDISABLED ACL RIGHTS=kxte QUOTA MAILBOX-REFERRALS NAMESPACE UIDPLUS NO_ATOMIC_RENAME UNSELECT CHILDREN MULTIAPPEND BINARY SORT SORT=MODSEQ THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES ANNOTATEMORE CATENATE CONDSTORE IDLE LISTEXT LIST-SUBSCRIBED X-NETSCAPE URLAUTH] User logged in
2 NAMESPACE
* NAMESPACE (("INBOX/" "/")) (("user/" "/")) (("" "/"))
2 OK Completed
3 logout
* BYE LOGOUT received

---snip---

So Dovecot is stating Namespace separator is ".". But my dovecot -n namespace section shows:

namespace:
  type: private
  separator: /
  prefix: INBOX/
  inbox: yes
  list: yes
  subscriptions: yes

According to this I've set separator to "/". And this is the problem. I think problem arised somewhere between beta9 and beta11, as it worked before... The separator in imapsync was for both "/" (--sep1 /, --sep2 /), I just played with all possibilities...

Well, never mind if v1.2 or v2.0, as long as LMTP makes it in ;) Anyway, we can provide some good stress testing in such an environment...

Regards and for all Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Sebastian

Shouldn't those be -sep1 / -sep2 /. Or at least the one that's on
Dovecot's side.

> Btw., as we work in a load balanced environment, LMTP delivery would
 be a great feature for upcoming releases, as it would enable people to
 use multiple frontends of SMTP servers without the need of connecting
 them to a somewhat shared file system. Forwarding all mail to a SMTP
 server on the machine running dovecot and doing delivery there isn't the
 favoured option (at least for us).

Yes, LMTP would be nice, but it pretty much requires v2.0 framework.
 I'm
still not sure if the next version will be v1.2 or v2.0..
