Dear all, when I had a courier installation still in place I used to create the Maildir tree for a new user using its maildirmake (IIRC) utility. Now that I had to rebuild a server from scratch, and using dovecot did not install courier, I have to create Maildirs without that utility. I seem to remember that libexec/imap could be called in a way to create the Maildir and its required subfolders (.Sent, .Drafts, etc). Do I remember correctly? If so what are the command line options? I cannot find pointers in the wiki or elsewhere. If not, I will just create a template and script the whole process. Thanks Giuliano
just create the Maildir directory and dovecot will create anything else it needs. Daniel
