RE: Using / in folder names

2023-08-04 Thread Scott 
Ok, I got it working with LAYOUT=index

 

*   I am using SQL so the mail_location was being taken from there instead 
of the config, hence it was ignoring the config line
*   BROKENCHAR still doesn’t work even when added to SQL
*   I let dovecot auto create the home directories of users. This doesn’t 
work with LAYOUT=index . It complains that: Error: Couldn't create mailbox list 
lock  in _users_home_dir 

If I manually create the homedir then it works as expected

 

I’ll go ahead and re-import my data – thank you.

 

Not sure if the behavior I described so far is a bug and if I should file it as 
such (?)

 

Thanks once again

You could test this out first on your test deployment. index layout is pretty 
permissive as it uses guids instead of names on disk.

Like this ?

 

mail_location = maildir:/ssd_bkp/ingestmail/mail/%n@%d:BROKENCHAR=_

 

still throws the same error

 

I could try migrating to a new layout but will it fix the issue ? I already 
imported about 250GB of data which I assume I have to throw away and start over 
?

 

Is this a bug in the listescape plugin ?

Thank you for your assistance

I am trying to import a PST file and it has a slash in the folder name.

Dovecot errors out with :

 

APPEND "Caixa de Entrada_VIDA/S1" (\Seen)

NO [CANNOT] Invalid mailbox name: Name must not have '/' characters

 

My namespace separator is the dot and I configured the listescape plugin to

escape / but it still doesn't work.

 

The listescape documentation says:

 

The / character is disallowed on POSIX systems.

 

This plugin allows you to use all of these characters, as long as the

virtual separator (i.e. what is set by the separator setting and used as

such by the IMAP protocol) is changed to something else, which means that

the plugin does not make it possible to use the virtual separator in folder

names.

 

 

So it seems that as long as I use the dot, it should work ? Except it

doesn't...

 

How can I do this import ?

 

Thank you!

RE: Using / in folder names

2023-08-04 Thread Scott 
Hmm, am I doing something wrong ? It seems everything I try doesn’t work:

 

a select "B/2"

a NO [CANNOT] Invalid mailbox name: Name must not have '/' characters (0.001 + 
0.000 secs).

a create "B/2"

a NO [CANNOT] Invalid mailbox name: Name must not have '/' characters (0.001 + 
0.000 secs).

 

 

Also from what I see, even with LAYOUT=index it still creates regular folder 
names on disk

By the way, not sure if it matters or not, but the maildir location is a nfs 
mount

My namespace separator is the dot and I configured the listescape plugin to 

escape / but it still doesn't work. 

  

The listescape documentation says: 

  

The / character is disallowed on POSIX systems. 

  

This plugin allows you to use all of these characters, as long as the 

virtual separator (i.e. what is set by the separator setting and used as 

such by the IMAP protocol) is changed to something else, which means that 

the plugin does not make it possible to use the virtual separator in folder 

names. 

  

  

So it seems that as long as I use the dot, it should work ? Except it 

doesn't... 

  

How can I do this import ? 

  

Thank you!

Should work by just loading listescape plugin and not using / as namespace 
separator.

I could. But there's like 200 PSTs to import in total...

Thanks!

Maybe this is over simplifying things but can you just open the pst file in 
outlook and then rename the folder, then import?

Using / in folder names

2023-08-03 Thread Scott 
Is this possible at all ?

I am trying to import a PST file and it has a slash in the folder name.
Dovecot errors out with : 

APPEND "Caixa de Entrada_VIDA/S1" (\Seen)
NO [CANNOT] Invalid mailbox name: Name must not have '/' characters

My namespace separator is the dot and I configured the listescape plugin to
escape / but it still doesn't work.

The listescape documentation says:

The / character is disallowed on POSIX systems.

This plugin allows you to use all of these characters, as long as the
virtual separator (i.e. what is set by the separator setting and used as
such by the IMAP protocol) is changed to something else, which means that
the plugin does not make it possible to use the virtual separator in folder
names.


So it seems that as long as I use the dot, it should work ? Except it
doesn't...

How can I do this import ?

Thank you!
