Does it work better if you use mail_location=sdbox:~/sdbox:DIRNAME=

The subscriptions file is not created and the dovecot-acl file has the wrong path, too. :-( Greetings, Hativ Am 07.07.2018 um 02:26 schrieb Hativ: Hey again, I've found a working configuration: mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME=. I use a dot instead of slash or empty value. Now my folder structure looks like I want and Dovecot is working fine. Can anyone (maybe even a Dovecot developer?) say if the configuration is okay? I've tried to check the source code, but I don't know C as good as it's needed for that.

Currently my folder structure looks like this (I hope the output from tree would be formatted well): /srv/mail/ └── example.com └── user ├── dovecot-acl-list ├── dovecot-attributes ├── dovecot.list.index.log ├── dovecot.mailbox.log ├── dovecot-uidvalidity ├── dovecot-uidvalidity.5b3f746f ├── mailboxes │ ├── Drafts │ │ └── dbox-Mails │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ ├── INBOX │ │ └── dbox-Mails │ │ ├── dovecot.index.cache │ │ ├── dovecot.index.log │ │ └── u.1 │ ├── Junk │ │ └── dbox-Mails │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ ├── Sent │ │ └── dbox-Mails │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ └── Trash │ └── dbox-Mails │ └── dovecot.index.log └── subscriptions I would like to let it look like this: /srv/mail/ └── example.com └── user ├── dovecot-acl-list ├── dovecot-attributes ├── dovecot.list.index.log ├── dovecot.mailbox.log ├── dovecot-uidvalidity ├── dovecot-uidvalidity.5b3f746f ├── mailboxes │ ├── Drafts │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ ├── INBOX │ │ └── dovecot.index.cache │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ │ └── u.1 │ ├── Junk │ │ └──dovecot.index.log │ ├── Sent │ │ └── dovecot.index.log │ └── Trash │ └── dovecot.index.log └── subscriptions My path configuration: mail_attribute_dict = file:%h/dovecot-attributes mail_home = /srv/mail/%d/%n/ mail_location = sdbox:~/ I have tried mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME= and mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME=/ but it doesn't work. The first doesn't change anything. The second auto-creates the folders after first login like I want, but after next login they are greyed out and no longer accessible. Is it possible to get rid of the "dbox-Mails"-folder? I want this because I don't like to have an unneeded deep folder structure. Or is there a good reason to let the "dbox-Mails" folder in my setup?
