Hello,
We have been using lda_mailbox_autocreate to avoid to intialize empty
mailboxes upon account creations. This does the job allright except that
dovecot-lda is also allowed to autocreate sub folders which is a problem
when using addresses extensions (adress+folder at domain.tld). It's easy
for a malicious user to flood a mailbox with tons of subfolders.
Is there a way to tell dovecot-lda it can only create the initial
mailbox and maybe some special folders but nothing else?
Thanks,
Arnaud
