Dear all, I am slightly confused by the following log entries ...: imap(...): Debug: Namespace inbox: type=private, prefix=INBOX., sep=., inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:~/Maildir ...: imap(...): Debug: maildir++: root=~/Maildir, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=~/Maildir, alt...: imap(...): Debug: Namespace : type=private, prefix=, sep=, inbox=no, hidden=yes, list=no, subscriptions=no location=fail::LAYOUT=none ...: imap(...): Debug: none: root=, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=, alt It seems that Dovecot opens two different namespaces, despite only one being configured in 10-mail.conf/15-mailboxes.conf. Is this normal and intended? Further, what is the purpose of the line starting with 'none'? Best regards, Thorsten Dovecot version: 2.2.26.0 on Debian Jessie
