Administrative stuff such as sieve filters, possible error logs, textfiles that are used by other plugins such as vacation (lda-dupes), etc, etc. This way you won't be able to see those in your subscribe list, which is a good thing since they aren't mailboxes/dirs :) Gr, Nils -- Simple guidelines to happiness: Work like you don't need the money, love like your heart has never been broken and dance like no one can see you. pgpbWPK3RPLFs.pgp Description: PGP signature

Everything that would for some reason go into the users homedir, you
would be able to reach via Imap.
If I were you, I'd make home and mail point to a different directory,
which could be as simple as home=/var/mail/%d/%n
mail=/var/mail/%d/%n/Maildir. This way, dovecot will only look for mail
in the $HOME/Maildir, but still can do administrative stuff in $HOME.

Try using a static userdb: http://wiki.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/Static

I'm not the expert on the matter, but I think your columns are named
wrong. Try changing the latter part of the user_query to
'CONCAT('maildir:storage=', quote) AS quota FROM users WHERE email = '%u';
As an example, I've posted my userdb query:
user_query = SELECT concat('/mail/', maildir) as home,
concat('maildir:/mail/', maildir) as mail, 108 AS uid, 116 AS gid,
concat('maildir:storage=', quota) AS quota FROM mailbox WHERE username =
'%u' AND active = '1'
Hope this helps!
Nils.

It would be great if this would be tunable at the user level, since I can think of users (roaming mobile) that wouldn't want a status message to cause their 3G connection to keep on using time/data.

No, dovecot uses various plugins for authentication and authorization of users with passwords that belong to them. My guess is that it would be best for you to create a user on your dovecot box specially for phplist, most likely dovecot's default authentication configuration will work just fine for you.
