As I mentioned in another thread I set up these 2 namespaces for a couple of users: namespace { inbox = yes location prefix separator = / type = private } namespace { location maildir:/home/vmail/oeffentlich:INDEXPVT=/home/vmail/public/index/%d/%u/index prefix = Oeffentlich/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = public } It is planned that they all will use Thunderbird (on MS Windows) to access their mailboxes. Now when I create a folder in the public space and try to delete it via thunderbird I get something like: "Renaming not supported across non-private namespaces" As far as I found out by browsing the web this is related to Thunderbird trying to move (=rename) the mail from the public to the private namespace, correct? Setting TB to immediately remove mails (tested that, this works) seems a bit scary to me: this removes a safety layer for the users because this would also apply to their personal maildirs. Is there any more elegant way of solving this? Do I have to set up some kind of ACLs? Some kind of "public paperbin folder" ?? Pls help me to understand this better ;-) Regards, Stefan
