hi Today I have been in a puzzling fight with 2 dovecot versions that I would like to ask some comments on.
The situation is this: - I have a considerable mail archive in mbox format (yes, I know, but that is what I have..). - My mail reader is mutt 1.5.20 by the way. - Some of these mbox files have names like firstname.initial.lastname Note the . seperating the parts of the email-ers name. - On my old system I have dovecot v 1.1.7 which has always worked flawless - On my new system I have dovecot v 1.2.8 which refuses to handle these dot-seperated files. I get the somewhat familiar "Mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes". On a not-previously-existing mbox dovecot 1.2.8 produces the directory hierarchy thing: firstname -> initial -> lastname - I am using the same dovecot.conf on v.1.1.7 and v.1.2.8 Can anyone tell me if v1.2.8 no longer is able to do what v1.1.7 did? And what I dearly would like to get working :-( And if it can, what should I put in dovecot.conf to make that happen? thanks, Wilko -- wi...@freebsd.org
