similar to: namespaces and behaviour of LIST and SELECT with leading ~

Greetings, I'm building a new 1.1.x-series Dovecot installation, and I have a problem setting up compatibility namespaces intended to handle old client-side settings. (See also: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces#head-0f3ab5ecab632eb517866c3508021e0605d54d4d) I have produced a slightly cut-down example configuration which demonstrates the problem: # dovecot -n # 1.1.3:

In a formerly working environment suddenly clients aren't notified of new emails and can't retrieve new emails. Server is Ubuntu 11.04 dovecot 1.2.15. Clients which fail are a Pre2 webOS 2.1 and TouchPad webOS 3.0 (those are OS versions, I don't know which particular flavor/version the IMAP clients are); there is also a Thunderbird 3.1.11 client on the same system as the server which

Hello Timo, I think the following commit makes problems: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/68a8b650578e # Doesn't work A01 LIST "" ~/Mail/Gesendet # OK with quoted mailbox A02 LIST "" "~/Mail/Gesendet" Details: imap * PREAUTH [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS

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???

Hello, I've got a crash with -test27 on a FETCH, just after logging in. Attached are the mailbox (1 message only), logs, sniffed session, testcase and core dump backtrace. If the dovecot.conf is needed, just ask (it's pretty much the default configuration). Maybe this has just been fixed in -test28, in which case you can just delete this email. :) Btw, it's rather irrelevant, but

[1.1.4 with http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/b61424a50786 applied] I'm trying to use namespaces as described here for UW-IMAP compatibility: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces But I'm getting a problem with the hidden namespaces showing up in the LIST output. Here is a simplified transcript. The ~/Mail folder contains just two folders. The config given to imapd is as follows:

In prepping our IMAP migration to Dovecot, I've hit upon a small issue: the "IMAP server directory" which Thunderbird users have set in the "advanced" prefs. Our old IMAP server seems to set your current directory to ~. This wound up causing users to set their IMAP server directory to "/home/<user>/mail/" so that their mailboxes would be found: --> A104

Hi, Certain IMAP folder problems started popping up with Squirrelmail with the 1.1beta10 version of Dovecot (and possibly earlier versions). Looked into it and I am seeing odd behavior with the LIST command. Here is how to reproduce problem, unless I'm missing something obvious: a001 login dean <password> a001 OK Logged in. a002 list "" * * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked)

I'm still battling my way through using hidden namespaces to hide the change from UW-IMAP to Dovecot 1.0-stable from my users. The latest problem is that some (probably many) users have their IMAP folder prefix set to "~/mail" rather than "~/mail/". I have hidden namespaces with prefixes "~/mail/", "~%u/mail/" and "mail/". LIST

I've just switched from UW-IMAP to Dovecot v1.1.beta16, and I'm having a bit of a problem with a difference in the behaviour of the LIST command. What I'm seeing is: * PREAUTH [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR SORT THREAD=REFERENCES MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT LITERAL+ IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE LOGIN-REFERRALS UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1] Logged in as jp3 a list test/ * * LIST (\Noselect

Hello list, i use dovecot 2.2.18 compiled on my own and want to report an odd behaviour when using a folder for special_use \Archive. In my case it is not working when using some special foldernames (mbox). I compared to version 2.2.15 which i found pre-packaged on launchpad.net, same behaviour. All other special_use Folder work like expected. My situation: We authenticate users using

We just changed from UW imap last night and one of our bigger problems right now is that the ~/mail/ compatibility namespace doesn't seem to work. dovecot 2.0.8 Dec 15 12:01:52 zen.engr.oregonstate.edu dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.warning] imap(tom2): Warning: Subscriptions file /nfs/rack/u4/t/tom2/mail/.subscriptions: Ignoring invalid entry: ~/mail/foo1/folder1 Dec 15 12:01:52

Hello all, I am trying to figure out why I am can't seem to access any of my mailboxes that I moved from my OS X machine using UW-IMAP and I followed the directions on the wiki (http://wiki.dovecot.org/MissingMailboxes) to try and figure this out. I believe based on what I saw that my client seems to be the problem, but my question is. Can anyone tell me what the difference between

Hi, using ACL plugin with dovecot 1.1.1 I expected that a Maildir was listed as * LIST (\NoInferiors) "/" "Foldername" if "create" (k) permission is not set in ACLs and there doesn't exists any subfolders. But to my surprise, dovecot gives the following output: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "Foldername" Therefore the client (here:

We're using dovecot 2.1.3 and I've been doing some testing with 2.1.7. We have shared mail (maildir) folders working along with our default mbox mailboxes. Our problem is trying to get this to work in a reasonable fashion with our iPhone or iPad mail.app clients. It's well known that they don't honor the subscription list; they show all available mail folders and do not

Hi all, I've been experimenting with Dovecot; tests with Maildir seemed to work fine. However, now I'm trying with mbox folders, and I'm having a problem where I do not get an INBOX listed using pine. Outlook Express and IMP show it fine. I snooped part of the session, which appears to go like this (it is slightly garbled, sorry -- I couldn't get rawlog to work by creating

Hi, My MUA (claws-mail) is having a hard time listing directories for a mail account with two namespaces, one of which using mbox and the other one using maildir to store mails. Let's call the namespaces "#mbox." and "#maildir." and have "." as separator. Assume I have the following folder hierarchy: $namespace $namespace folder $namespace folder folder1a

I am in mbox configuration, and I am getting INBOX listed 3 times. I suppose the first is /var/mail/login and the others are $HOME/Mail but they appear twice. However, it seems this is a bug. << $ telnet localhost 143 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to utopia.priv. Escape character is '^]'. * OK dovecot ready. 01 LOGIN login password 01 OK Logged in. 02 LIST ""

Hi, we have experienced some erratic behavior from Dovecot 2.0.15 if a user's INBOX is shared. Some folders of user1, including the INBOX, have been shared using these IMAP commands: . login user1 XXXXXX . setacl INBOX user2 lrwstiekx . setacl box-a user2 lrwstiekx Now if we use telnet to log in as user2 and select "shared/user1", it will contain the same mails as

Greetings, Is there a mechanism (or relatively small source-code change) which would cause Dovecot to evaluate IMAP prefixes relative to $HOME rather than the configured IMAP root? * * * Background: We're currently migrating from a WU-IMAP mailserver configuration which stores user mail in a global NFS-exported $HOME, and we've run into well-known issues handling client-specified IMAP
