[Dovecot] Maildir folders, separator = /, LAYOUT=fs (to support offlineimap)
I use offlineimap to pull down some Gmail mail stores. With offlineimap I use sep = / and nothing more exotic. With dovecot I can see INBOX, messages, and messages in top level folders but not subfolders. I'm dealing with folder structure that looks like this: /opt/gmail/joe/Later /opt/gmail/joe/Tech/Projects /opt/gmail/joe/Tech/Projects/Fun /opt/gmail/joe/Tech/Projects/Failed /opt/gmail/joe/Tech/Projects/Planning The folder Later has cur, tmp, new and I can see messages. Projects is a container for subfolders Fun, Failed, Planning. I know Fun, Failed, Planning has messages but I'm not able to expand (via thunderbird) the folder Projects. I have this configured in dovecot.conf mail_location = maildir:/opt/gmail/joe:INBOX=/opt/gmail/joe/INBOX:LAYOUT=fs namespace private { separator = / list = yes } --- And this is what's getting logged... dovecot: Feb 18 07:26:39 Info: IMAP(joe): Namespace: type=private, prefix=, sep=/, inbox=no, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes dovecot: Feb 18 07:26:39 Info: IMAP(joe): maildir: data=/opt/gmail/joe:INBOX=/opt/gmail/joe/INBOX:LAYOUT=fs dovecot: Feb 18 07:26:39 Info: IMAP(joe): fs: root=/opt/gmail/joe, index=, control=, inbox=/opt/gmail/joe/INBOX

I know Fun, Failed, Planning has messages but I'm not able to expand (via thunderbird) the folder Projects.Sounds like the Thunderbird bug with handling subscriptions past the second level of subfolders. Search mailing list archives for more info.
