Hi, I'm fresh starting to use dovecot. Before this I used bincimap, mainly because it was very simple to config. I've tried to find the FAQ's and tried searching the archives, but little came up. My current config: server FreeBSD i386, postfix 2.4 dovecot 1.0.10 client: windows 2000 thunderbird 2.0.0.12 after some inital config this starts up, and I even have the advantage that I can save in the Sent folder on the server. However I have over 3500 folders and most of them are more than 3 levels deep. And I only get to see the first top level of directories. Searching and/or subscribing does not bring anything. Does somebody have pointers on how to fix this, other than manually trying to recreate al subscriptions. --WjW

Dovecot v1.1 would support that, but v1.0 supports only Maildir++ directory layout. http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir#maildir++ Although I thought that Binc also supported only maildir++ and imapdir, and I thought imapdir also used a maildir++-like flat layout? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

No they just follow the maildir format .aaa.bbb.ccc So ccc is a subfolder of bbb which is a subfolder of aaa> Although I thought that Binc also supported only maildir++ and imapdir, > and I thought imapdir also used a maildir++-like flat layout?AFAIK Binc does not understand much other than the basics.... --WjW
