Hello, I have a mail server which I upgraded yesterday. OLD: Redhat 9 sendmail (very old version) UW ipop3d usermin with readmail module for webmail access (very old version) NEW: Fedora Core 6 sendmail 8.13.8 Usermin for webmail again dovecot 1.0.0 # /etc/dovecot.conf protocols: pop3 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_location: mbox:/home/%u/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u mail_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir: /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 pop3_uidl_format: %08Xv%08Xu auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd Everything is working great, besides a few glitches here and there. However, When accessing mailboxes via webmail (usermin) an email shows up with a subject of DON'T DELETE THIS MESSAGE -- FOLDER INTERNAL DATA. As far as I can tell, this is an IMAP folder directory portion of the mailbox file that should be hidden. We don't use IMAP at all, and it is confusing people when they see this message that never was in their webmail before. Anyone know how to hide, remove or otherwise fix? Thank you in advance. Andy

And if they do, they should not be visible with Dovecot v1.0.> As far as I > can tell, this is an IMAP folder directory portion of the mailbox file that > should be hidden.Not really. They're created just the same with POP3. But in either case they shouldn't be visible to users. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

The message does have the X-IMAP Header intact.(X-IMAP: 1183060687 0000000002) The email is hidden when using a pop3 client(doesn't download it), or telnetting an account and using the LIST command. The problem I am having is that within webmail (read mail module of usermin) it doesn't hide the message. I think Dovecot is doing everything correctly, but more so usermin is not registering that the message should be hidden, and I don't know how to fix it.
