[Dovecot] problem with POP3 mail location when using namespaces
Hello, I have a problem (at least with 1.0rc28 and 1.0rc27) when using the following namespace definitions: namespace private { separator = "/" inbox = yes location = mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u } namespace public { separator = / prefix = 0-LISTS/ location = mbox:/var/mail/lists:INDEX=~/.sharedMail/lists/index } namespace private { separator = "/" prefix = "0-MAILDIR-FOLDERS/" location = maildir:~/Maildir } IMAP access is working as expected, but when connecting with POP3(s), the (mostly empty in our case) ~/Maildir is used as mail location when it has been created (including index files) by IMAP access. If ~/Maildir does not exist/has been deleted again, POP3 uses /var/spool/mail/%u. This is independent of the private namespace section order and also an explicit "inbox = no" in 0-MAILDIR-FOLDERS namespace. Any idea if this is an configuration issue I don't understand yet or a bug?

The mail location is taken from mail_location setting. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
