dovecot - Sep 2007 - Howto make deleted itens visible to users?

Hi!

I'm using lazy_expunge to backup that are deleted/expunged, but I would 
like it to be visible to the user.

I tried something like:
namespace private {
  prefix = .EXPUNGED/
  separator = /
  location = maildir:~/Maildir/.Apagadas
}
namespace private {
  prefix = .DELETED/
  separator = /
  location = maildir:~/Maildir/.Apagadas
}
namespace private {
  prefix = .DELETED/.EXPUNGED/
  separator = /
  location = maildir:~/Maildir/.Apagadas/
}

But neither OE nor TB shows the messages. (yes, i subscribed the 
".Apagadas" maildir).

Anybody can give me this little tip?

Thanks a lot.

[]'s, Catunda!

I guess ~/Maildir is visible in default namespace? You shouldn't do
that. The locations should be different for each of these namespaces and
they shouldn't be visible in other namespaces.

The clients would see them under ".EXPUNGED" mailbox. You may want to
change that prefix to something else, like "Expunged messages/". Also
since you're using '/' separator here, you must be using '/'
separator
in your default namespace as well. If you aren't, change the separator
in these namespaces also, and use a prefix such as "Expunged
messages.".

Thanks for your replay Timo!

What I realy would like is to have a single folder like "Deleted 
Messages" or something else where all deleted messages go to.

But I imagine that its not possible couse a maildir cant have messages 
and folders inside it, right? So, if the user deletes an imap folder it 
must go to a different location than deleted messages. I'm not pretty 
sure about that, but I have been reading a bit and I belive that its true.

Anyway, is there a way to have all deleted messages in one folder, even 
it it have been deleted from another folder, something like:

/INBOX
/DRAFTS/
/NAGIOSWARNINGS/
        /Message1
        /Message2
        /Message3
/Deleted/

When I delete Message1 it goes to /Deleted
When I delete NAGIOSWARNINS, then Message1, Message2 and Message3 gost 
to /Deleted.
If I delete an empty folder it goes to /dev/null :-)

Thankz a lot and sorry about my poor english!
