Hi, Aki and Kostya,
Thank you for your feedback. Well, I have set "auto = subscribe" in
the
15-mailboxes.conf file. Now, I changed Outlook setting of imap and I can
see Draft, Trash, Sent and Sent Messages folders and I can see the mail
files in there. However, I don't see mail files in the "cur or
new"
folder where is under .Sent Messages folder.
1. The drafts, trash, Junk, Sent and Sent Massages folders are in English.
Can I change to other language in the 15-mailboxes.conf file?
Actually, I tried to change it, but dovecot doesn't start due to
"unrecognized" parameter.
2. Maybe my configuration of 15-mailboxes.conf is wrong. The current
parameter of sent message is as follow.
mailbox Sent {
special_use = \Sent
auto = subscribe
}
mailbox "Sent Messages" {
special_use = \Sent
auto = subscribe
}

Koshiro,

Now, I changed Outlook setting of imap and I can see Draft, Trash, Sent and Sent
Messages folders and I can see the mail files in there. However, I don't see
mail files in the "cur or new" folder where is under .Sent Messages
folder.

Maybe Outlook isn't going to upload all old pre-existing Sent (etc) messages
to server just from your setting the right server folder.
Have you tried sending a *new* test message from Outlook ("new" -
after you changed Outlook setting for Sent folder) - to see if it gets uploaded?
If it does, but the old pre-existing messages don't - I would think
you'd need to find a way to make Outlook upload *all* (old, pre-existing)
Sent messages to server?

The protocol is imap. Now, I've realized that there are no "sent items,
drafts" boxed under Maildir for each users. I would like to take back up
Inbox, sent items, draft boxes. For sent items box, it seems to be stored in
outlook client file which is "ost". The configuration parameters and
version is as follows. I can see that "namespace" has been configured.
How can I setup to see these folders?
