Hello,I have a mail server which runs Exim. The problem I have is that the users maildir is visible inside their home directories. This is a potential problem because it can be easily deleted my mistake. Is the Exim MTA able to be configured so that the maildir can be hidden as .maildir?
Of course, in your transport for maildir, you probably have something like:
maildir_home:
driver = appendfile
directory = $home/Maildir
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
maildir_format
mode = 0600
mode_fail_narrower = false
What you have to do is to change the "directory" variable to the one you
wish (i.e: directory = $home/.maildir) .
However, you will also have to move all mails to this directory manually, and you may have to reconfigure your pop/imap/webmail services too to reflect this change.
