Re: [Dovecot] Multiple private namespace question
Timo Sirainen wrote: But I don't think there are any problems if you make INBOX. namespace the hidden one. Most clients don't care about namespaces. Hi Timo, thanks for the reply - I understand what you're saying. Can you theorize what will happen to the already configured/subscribed users (Thunderbird) whose tree looks like: INBOX |_ Sent |_ Drafts ...when I would change the default namespace around and make the empty prefix inbox=yes? Would everything suddenly become flat on them and cause confusion? Ala: INBOX Sent Drafts Most Thunderbird instances already configured say INBOX. under the setting of '(IMAP Account) - Server Settings - Advanced - Personal Namespace'; I think this value is filled in automatically by Thunderbird the first time you configure the account and it queries the server and received the namespace advertisement. Would it be correct to assume that all these existing users would be fine (because of the hidden INBOX prefix namespace, compatibility mode), and only new users would see a flat hierarchy when setting up Thunderbird?

Right now (which is very low usage) there's only one dovecot-auth process
and I remember looking at this at the time and not being worried about the
number of auth processes, or I probably would have changed the default
from 30.. Also, I never saw anything in the logs. I turned on
auth_verbose = yes but not auth_debug.
We're using a rather old NIS server at the moment, planning to move to
LDAP this summer.
Dovecot has been running smoothly this week since I turned on the
auth_cache stuff, at times going up around 110 imap-login processes but
never going higher. It's always responsive which makes the users happy.
Thanks again for the great product!
