Hi Using this line in dovecot.conf (ignore linewrap) default_mail_env = mbox:%h/IMAP/:INBOX=%h/.email:INDEX=/var/cache/dovecot/%n The INBOX indexes are being built correctly in /var/cache/dovecot, but all other indexes for folders are still being built in the user's home directory. I had it working once - but it seems fragile - almost as if the config parser is sensitive to context???

...MAP client config is even more random and we have 1800 users. I have been playing with namespaces to translate various prefixes ala: default_mail_env = mbox:%h/:INBOX=%h/.email:INDEX=/var/cache/dovecot/%n # Note lack of IMAP ^^^ (So clients can use ~/IMAP or ~/Mail - we have a # historic mixture) full_filesystem_access = no namespace private { separator = / inbox = yes prefix = hidden = no location = mbox:.email } namespace private { separator = / prefix = hidden = no location = mbox:IMAP/ } namespace private { separator = / prefix = IMAP/ hidden = no location = mbox:IMAP/ } namespace pr...

...pty directories appearing in users' $HOME. If there was some mechanism for telling Dovecot to evaluate IMAP prefixes relative to $HOME rather than the mail folder root specified in mail_location, that would provide us with a much neater and general-purpose solution. (I was hoping that setting full_filesystem_access=yes would do this, but it only relaxes the normal access permissions.)

hi, yesterday we switch to courir to dovecot the whole company. there is good and bad news. the good one that about 200 people use outlook and outlook works fine (after we make some registry hack to delete the INBOX form imap root folder, which was required for courier but not for dovecot). the bad news we try most of the thing before the switch except outself. since the whole it department use
