Hello,
I've setup Dovecot and Postfix mailing systems.  The protocol is imap.
Now, I've realized that there are no "sent items, drafts" boxed under
Maildir for each users.  I would like to take back up Inbox, sent items,
draft boxes.  For sent items box, it seems to be stored in outlook client
file which is "ost".  The configuration parameters and version is as
follows.  I can see that "namespace" has been configured.  How can I setup
to see these folders?

Thank you for your support!

1. Dovecot version ->2.2.36
2. dovecot -n
