[Dovecot] IMAP --> Creating Folders --> trailing slash
Hello List, i use Dovecot 1.0.7 for pop and imap on Suse Linux 10.1. I need a little help in understanding something. If i want to create a folder with outlook express or thunderbird which can also create subfolders, then i have to create these folders with a trailing slash. folders created with trailing slash are in filesystem created als real folders, "normal" folders are created as file. Is it possible to change this behavior? I want to create a folders just by typing a name without trailing slash. It should be possible to store messages in this folder or create subfolders. Is there any workaround to achieve this goal? Thank you Andre
