Hello, Config infos below. Short version, I am getting this weird anomaly on my main email account. Such that, "dovecot.sieve" is showing up as a mailbox in my various email clients (e.g. k-9 (mobile), and Evolution). I have tried deleting the "rogue folder" with doveadm, but it just returns. Anyone have any suggestions where I can track this down. dovecot --version 2.2.27 dovecot -n # 2.2.27 (c0f36b0): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) # OS: Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64 x86_64 Debian 9.8 ext4 auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = yes mail_debug = yes mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vmail/%d/%n mail_plugins = " quota" mail_privileged_group = vmail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded- character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate mime foreverypart extracttext namespace inbox { ? inbox = yes ? location ? mailbox Archive { ????auto = subscribe ????special_use = \Archive ? } ? mailbox Drafts { ????auto = subscribe ????special_use = \Drafts ? } ? mailbox Junk { ????auto = subscribe ????special_use = \Junk ? } ? mailbox Sent { ????special_use = \Sent ? } ? mailbox "Sent Messages" { ????special_use = \Sent ? } ? mailbox Trash { ????auto = subscribe ????special_use = \Trash } ? prefix } passdb { ? args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext ? driver = sql } plugin { ? quota = maildir:User quota ? quota_grace = 10%% ? quota_rule = *:storage=10G ? quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+1G ? quota_status_overquota = 552 5.2.2 Mailbox is full ? quota_warning = storage=95%% quota-warning 95 %u ? quota_warning2 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %u ? sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve ? sieve_after = /etc/dovecot/sieve/spamfilter.sieve ? sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service auth { ? unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { ????group = postfix ????mode = 0666 ????user = postfix ? } } service imap-login { ? inet_listener imaps { ????port = 993 ????ssl = yes ? } } service lmtp { ? unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { ????group = postfix ????mode = 0600 ????user = postfix ? } } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/little-beak.com/fullchain.pem ssl_key =??# hidden, use -P to show it userdb { ? args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext ? driver = sql } verbose_ssl = yes protocol lmtp { ? mail_plugins = " quota sieve" ? postmaster_address = esteban at little-beak.com } protocol lda { ? mail_plugins = " quota sieve" } protocol imap { ? mail_plugins = " quota imap_quota" }
This because you have a very common misconfiguration, which is that your mail_home and mail_location are pointing to same directory, and that lead into this problem. Solution is of course to use: mail_home = /var/mail/vmail/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~/Mail Aki> On 21 March 2019 16:48 Esteban L via dovecot <dovecot at dovecot.org> wrote: > > > Hello, > > Config infos below. > > Short version, I am getting this weird anomaly on my main email > account.

Which works for me ^^' Yassine.
Thanks for the help. This did solve my problem, and created a little hiccup. Namely, all the users that had email account LOST their mail. I am just starting migrating to this new mail server setup, so mostly just insignificant testing emails. I am sure there is a way to recover the old mails? Doesn't matter, not really much there. -- Sent from: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/
