[Dovecot] Phantom INBOX in 1.2. Is there a stable .deb of 2.0?
Hi, We've been running 1.2 Dovecot for a while and are happy with it. In trying to migrate from symlinks to shared folders I see a similar problem to that shown at http://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot at dovecot.org/msg32083.html . For example: . lsub "" "*" * LSUB () "." "Users..INBOX" The advice given in the thread is to upgrade to 2.0. We currently use Debian's 1.2 package and I'm reluctant to move since I can't find a stable 2.0 .deb (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PrebuiltBinaries only has repository heads of 2.0). Building from source is an option but I'd really prefer to be using a package. Can anybody advise on an appropriate way to go? Like the original poster I am seeing INBOX under the shared namespace when I try to share. I'm also getting an empty /var/mail/virtual/users/Maildir created (maildir:/var/mail/virtual/users/%n/Maildir/). We formerly had an INBOX prefix namespace from a Courier migration too, but it has been deleted (to no avail). Shared folders do work, though. It just requires 'anyone l' in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-acls/.DEFAULT (though I'd really rather not do this!). Thanks for any help, Ian ######## mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/virtual/users/%n/Maildir/ namespace private { separator = . prefix inbox = yes } namespace shared { separator = . prefix = Users.%%n. location = maildir:/var/mail/virtual/users/%%n/Maildir/:INDEX=~/shared/%%u subscriptions = no list = children } namespace public { separator = . prefix = Shared. location = maildir:/var/mail/virtual/public:INDEX=~/public subscriptions = no } auth default { mechanisms = plain passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-master.conf master=yes } userdb passwd { } userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-userdb.conf } userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-shared-ldap.conf } } plugin { acl = vfile:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-acls:cache_secs=3 acl_shared_dict = file:/var/mail/virtual/shared-mailboxes.db }
