Mailboxes not showing up in MS Outlook

Sat, 19 Jul 2014 15:03:03 -0400

I am not sure exactly where the problem is here. I am using a sieve script
that sorts various incoming messages into their own mailbox. MS Outlook does
not show those folders if they are not directly under INBOX.

EXAMPLE:

drwx------  31 vmail  vmail   1.0K 2014-07-19 14:46:55 EDT ./
drwx------   3 vmail  vmail   512B 2014-07-02 13:52:03 EDT ../

In the above example, only the following are displayed:

.INBOX.Deleted Items/
.INBOX.Drafts/
.INBOX.Junk E-mail/
.INBOX.PSNC/
.INBOX.SGWASA/
.INBOX.Sent Items/
.INBOX.UNRBA/

Do I have a configuration problem?

Have you tried to refresh the list of available IMAP folders?

Test IMAP yourself:

telnet server 143
1 login user "password"
2 list "" *
3 lsub "" *
4 logout

The list command should display all your mailboxes. The lsub command 
displayes "subscribed" ones.

If list returns just the subset, you have an error on the Dovecot server. 
Then you should see errors in Dovecot's log.

Other problems:

+ You have a fixed IMAP root folder setting in Outlook.
+ Outlook shows only subscribed folders. See lsub above. The mailboxes 
returned by lsub should match Outlook.
