dovecot - Aug 2004 - Dovecot Courier

Hello, I've been testing dovecot, and it appears to be much faster then
courier-imap. I am using the latest .99 version, trying to make the
transition from courier to dovecot as smooth as possible. We really only
use IMAP via squirrelmail, I think I've got that worked out fine,
changing a few settings in squirrelmail as the FAQ instructs and
migrating the courier subscriptions to .subscriptions. I've noticed the
folders .Trash .Sent  are no longer subfolders of the INBOX,, and when I
create new folders in a Client, it creates .INBOX.foldername, and
a .INBOX. I would really like all folders to be subfolders of .INBOX,
I've set dovecot up as the following.

default_mail_env = maildir:/var/export/%h/.maildir:INDEX=/var/indexes/%n

I've also tried putting the INBOX:/var/export/%h/.maildir in there as
well with no luck. I essentially want .INBOX to be .maildir, and any
subfolders would be called .Sent or .Trash or whatever, like in courier,
is this possible?

Regards
MIKE

This is because with Courier you had set client's namespace prefix to 
"INBOX." which isn't needed with Dovecot. So clients try to create
"INBOX.Sent" instead of just "Sent". The fix would be to
remove the
namespace prefix from clients. Alternatively you could make Dovecot use 
INBOX namespace like Courier, but this is possible only with 1.0-tests.
