Re: [Dbmail] Sub-Folders
Mmm. One of our testing clients is Outlook and it seems to work fine. I know with Courier IMAP (which I played with about a year ago), everything was a subfolder of "INBOX." They reserved the root tree for Shared folders and stuff. The problem was Outlook express for one didn't every try to call "capabilities" so it didn't know this and always used to barf when trying to create folders. I made some hacks to change the namespace which solved that problem for me. Moving back to dbmail -- I think the way dbmail does it *is* compatible with outlook/express. I do seem to recall that there were some characters that were needed in the AcceptedMailboxChars array -- which may be especially relevant if you're trying to use any funny character sets or using punctuation, etc. Try with a few basic names and setting the debug level to 5. It may give you more of a clue. /Mark On 24/11/02 7:17 AM, "John Ruff" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks for clearing that up.

[Dbmail] Sub-Folders
Thanks for clearing that up. I can create sub-folders in Outlook, but I use Ximian Evolution (1.2.0) on Linux and cannot seem to figure out how to have Evolution create sub-folders. Does know how to do this, or what configuration to make to Evolution. -John On Sat, 2002-11-23 at 06:00, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Date: Sat, 23 Nov 2002 12:17:43 +1300 Subject: Re: [Dbmail] Sub-Folders From: Mark Mackay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: John Ruff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Dbmail Mailing list Reply-To: dbmail@dbmail.org Check your mail client's mailbox delimiter settings.

Re: [Dbmail] Sub-Folders
Check your mail client's mailbox delimiter settings. I think dbmail uses the following syntax: INBOX INBOX/Sub folder of Inbox Folder in root level Quickly looking through the source, it looks like dbmail doesn't support the "namespace" directive, which tells the mail client (from memory) what the root folder is and what the delimiter is. It probably defaults to "." or something. /Mark On 22/11/02 7:02 PM, "John Ruff" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Will DBMail support sub-folder creation through IMAP?

RE: [Dbmail] Sub-Folders
Subfolders work fine here too (creating in outlook once connected to the IMAP server), but I can only create mail items folders, not folders containing addresses, notes or tasks... Did anyone else managed top create these? Or do we have to wait for the Exchange layer to come on top of DBmail? ~Filip -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joby Walker Sent: 22 November 2002 06:29 To: dbmail@dbmail.org Subject: Re: [Dbmail] Sub-Folders Sub-Folders works for me. jbw John Ruff wrote: > Will DBMail support sub-folder creation through IMAP?

Sub-Folders works for me. jbw John Ruff wrote: Will DBMail support sub-folder creation through IMAP? Or did I not configure something correctly, b/c I'm only able to create folders directly at the root (same level as INBOX). -Thanks
[Dbmail] Sub-Folders
Will DBMail support sub-folder creation through IMAP? Or did I not configure something correctly, b/c I'm only able to create folders directly at the root (same level as INBOX). -Thanks -- "Shortcuts Make For Long Delays" -J.R.R Tolken
