similar to: Thunderbird 3.1 unable to delete subfolder of Trash under mdbox

I am trying out "mdbox" under Dovecot 2.0beta5. Looking in the "mailboxes" directory under the mdbox storage root ("~/dbox" in my case), I can see that the mail folders are mapped into filesystem directories. But Dovecot seems to put all the message list information ("dovecot.index.cache", "dovecot.index.log") for any given mail folder into a

Can't get Thunderbird 2 to delete a folder under mdbox (Dovecot 2.0beta5) I have built Dovecot 2.0 and installed it under "/opt/dovecot2". I have done the minimum configurations necesary to get it to work with SSL, systems users but with a secondary password database, and set up mail location as "mdbox:~/dbox". I had to create the directory "dbox" in the

Hi again, I just recognized a problem concerning subfolders after converting from maildir to mdbox. Thunderbird and SeaMonkey don?t show folders that are subfolders of subfolders. Have a look at the filesystem: discovery:/var/mail/domain.tld/patrick/mdbox/mailboxes/Folder1/Folder2# ls -l insgesamt 8 drwx------ 2 vmail vmail 4096 5. Sep 23:42 dbox-Mails drwx------ 3 vmail vmail 4096 5. Sep

With Thunderbird 3.1 I can now "delete" a folder which moves it to Trash. But I cannot remove the folder in Trash. The following is from the Thunderbird log file: 248[6814c00]: 8103800:imap.kzone.ch:A:SendData: 64 rename "test10" "Trash/test10" 248[6814c00]: 8103800:imap.kzone.ch:A:CreateNewLineFromSocket: 64 OK Rename completed. 248[6814c00]:

The wiki page which mentions mdbox talks about a "cleanup" step for mdbox: : The space is later freed in "cleanup" step. This may be done : automatically within the session or later in a nightly cronjob when : there's less disk I/O. The cleanup first finds all files that have : refcount=0 mails. Then it goes through each file and copies the : refcount>0 mails to other

Is there a tool to recover space used by refcount=0 messages in mdbox storage files? The wiki talks about it but it isn't clear where the tool is. Regards, Bill

This has got to be something weird in my config. And the standard disclaimer of '"happy to post doveconf -n, but wanted to see if this is normal first" :) Background: Ubuntu Xenial, running 2.2.36. Mailbox type is mdbox and I've got a period separator in my inbox namespace: namespace { hidden = no inbox = yes list = yes location = mailbox Spam { auto = no

Hi, If I delete a folder "foo" in Thunderbird, it is moved to trash.

Hi there, I have the problem that I'm unable to delete a subfolder (again) I created within a public folder. I've already read about configuring Thunderbird to delete immediately - which I did. But it still doesn't work. I delete -> the folder is gone -> I get a TB error message saying "The folder doesn't exist" -> after restarting TB the folders appear again.

Hello We actually use MBOX format on our mailhub but this does not permit to create IMAP subfolders. Many users are asking me fot this feature and I agree with them of course. My problem is to choose the format that will permit imap subfolders creation. Maildir is not my favorite format and I wonder about MDBOX. Does it permit imap subfolders creation ? It is possible to convert from MBOX to

I've updated http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation regarding a typical mail_location entry for dbox. Previously it said: mail_location = dbox:~/dbox but of course "dbox" is now the old name for "sdbox", so the example should be updated to say "sdbox" and there might/ought also to be an example for "mdbox". In

Hi guys, I tried to use a global sieve skript to sort spam mails into a subfolder of INBOX. I?m using mdbox. The log shows that the script is called and executed but it is not able to find or create the mailbox: Sep 4 15:18:55 mercury dovecot: lmtp(6237, mail at steulerfliesen.de): Debug: Namespace : Permission lookup failed from /var/mail/steulerfliesen.de/mail/mdbox/mailboxes/Spamverdacht

Hello, I pasted my config below, hoping someone can point out something obvious. In my dovecot.log I am seeing: Warning: quota: Namespace '' is not Maildir, skipping for Maildir++ quota I am using mysql userdb_* and passing maildir:~/maildir or mdbox:~/mdbox for mail. When its maildir its fine, I had that originally then used dsync to convert to mdbox, updated mysql entry to point to

Hi, We are trying to convert all mbox mail on our systems to mdbox using dsync, in order to be able to use email sub-folders in Thunderbird. Everything works fine for non-inbox folders, however the inbox folders are not getting converted. We used: *dsync -v convert mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u* *dovecot --version* 2.0.beta6 (3156315704ef) (shipping with RHEL6/SL6) *dovecot -n* #

All, having successfully compiled and set up Dovecot 2.2.29.1 on my Thecus NAS as a newbie without any further hassle, and already imported an external mail archive of ~15 GB into a lz4-compressed mdbox (with impressive performance on the old Intel Atom CPU!), I stumbled into a minor, but reproducible issue that might well be already known, but I haven't managed to find any pointers

I've got Dovecot 2.2r5 (Ubuntu package version 2:2.2.0~rc5-0~auto+1 from the "testing-auto/dovecot-2.2" repository on xi.rename-it.nl) running on a brand-new Ubuntu 12.04.2 server.
