[Dovecot] Thunderbird can't see a maildir named .Inbox (yeah I know, poor name)
I discovered by chance while migrating some user email to dovecot, one of them had a mailbox called "Inbox" and my script migrated it to a Maildir called .Inbox but Thunderbird could not see it at all, even in subscription lists. I tested with my account and it looks like mutt CAN see it. This seems like a client issue so I'll just make my migration script rename anything called Inbox to avoid it, but I thought I would send a note incase anyone else trips on it.
Possibly Parallel Threads
- Dovecot not handling r/o mailboxes completely, and problem with ACL as a workaround
- unlink_directory(....Trash.NewFolder) failed: Directory not empty
- assertion failed: (mailbox_list_is_valid_existing_name(_list, name))
- dovecot 1.1b4 not listing public folder children
- Quick and dirty server optimized for IMAP upload speed?
