Timo, would you consider adding support for "IMAP LIST Extension for Special-Use Mailboxes" <http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6154.txt> any time near in the future? I would really love to get rid of all those folders created by all those different mail clients just because they can't agree to use the same folder for special purpose. Obviously clients need to support it too. Having Dovecot support it certainly would ma...

Hi there. Can I check if LIST-EXTENDED refers to RFC 6154 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6154), rfc for special use mailboxes. I'd like to specify a designated folder as \Spam and etc. Googling "dovecot list-extended" and "dovecot special use" suggests that dovecot supports this feature (via patch logs and 1 bug report for Mozilla Thunderbird which suggests that...

Hi, Great to see Thunderbird support SPECIAL-USE now. I would like to hear the list about the intended use of SPECIAL-USE. I get the impression from several earlier mails here that the intention is for the server to globally decide what the folder-name of a specific SPECIAL-USE folder is for all users. That's the way the documentation exemplifies it and what I get from posts like this:

...and implements it using the XLIST command (as per MS-STANOIMAP), as documented in MS-STANOIMAP part 2.2.38; however, the LIST command in the same document doesn't mention the extension, so I'd assume it (Outlook 2013) doesn't necessarily support this feature using LIST as specified per RFC6154 (but only using explicitly XLIST.) Usually, any newer IMAP server supporting RFC6154 "LIST" ("XLIST") supports both the older XLIST as well as the newer LIST syntax. If it doesn't, a patch implementing this feature shouldn't be longer than a few (10 maybe?) lines of co...

Hello, Some versions of Outlook will randomly rename the Junk folder to Junk Email. This of course causes errors because Dovecot can no longer store junk. I go in to Outlook for each user and add another Junk folder, so now they have Junk and Junk Email. This fix action lasts a while until Outlook decides to do it again. Is there a way to tell Dovecot that if the Junk folder doesn't

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 dear honorable doctor timo reading the list I saw appear a new style for the "writing of INBOX". namely this example mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent }

Hi, I have some questions about Special-Use and virtual namespace: I want to create a virtual namespace with mailboxes: Sent, Unread, Flagged, All. 1. Is it enough to put in the config file: mailbox virtual/Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox virtual/Unread { auto = subscribe special_use = \Unread #Is it correct? } mailbox

...ed on my MacBook (via homebrew) that I've been using to test my IMAP library against. What is interesting is that even though Dovecot does not advertise CREATE-SPECIAL-USE, it supports creation of special-use folders via the "CREATE FolderName (USE (\Whatever))" syntax. According to rfc6154, a server is supposed to advertise the CREATE-SPECIAL-USE extension if it supports this: An IMAP server that supports this OPTIONAL feature will advertise the "CREATE-SPECIAL-USE" capability string. Clients MUST NOT use the "USE" parameter unless the server advertises...
