Today I upgraded to dovecot 1.0 rc1 (before I was using a 1.0 beta, as it had functions no one else had), the beta worked fairly well, no crashes, and the bugs were few and far between. I had a few issues with thunderbird 1.5, so I decided to upgrade. My problem is this, before, I had configured procmail to deliver SPAM to a subdirectory of the users home directory, (not mail/) and everything worked fine, new directories were creatable, and IMP seemed to be happy with everything as it was. With the new version though, dovecot refuses to see the folders in the base of the home directory, and all of this with absolutely no change to my conf file (except for the passdb and userdb options). my dovecot.conf file looks like this: default_mail_env = mbox:/ha/home/%u:INBOX=/ha/mail/%u:INDEX=/ha/home/%u ha is my drbd directory, for high availability. I've tried modifying the private namespaces, but without much luck, and I'm really not looking forward to moving all those folders to under the mail/ directory. Do I have any other options?? thanks, Nick

If you have defined namespaces but haven't set location-field in them, Dovecot should have defaulted to default_mail_env but instead it uses autodetection with rc1. Already fixed in CVS, and rc2 should come today. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
