dovecot - Feb 2007 - Folders compat. problem ?

Hi

A user here has a strange problem when I moved my imap server from
UW-IMAP to Dovecot.

A folder created monthes ago with mozilla mail (windows client) became
suddenly invisible when I stopped UW then started Dovecot.

I really think that IMAP created folders a fully compatibles between
UW and Dovecot but I'm curious to know from where does come this trouble ???

Anyone had experienced the same problem ?

Thanks a lot.

Dovecot uses a different file name for it's subscriptions file. UW IMAP:
.mailboxlist, Dovecot: .subscriptions This could cause folders to
disappear if the client is set to show only subscribed folders.

For other UW IMAP => Dovecot migration hints see:
