And if I create, from an IMAP client, a subfolder "foo" of "folder1",
I get Maildir/.folder1.foo instead of the more logical
Maildir/folder1/foo.

I see.  I hadn't ever tried that, I can see how that is annoying.

Take care,

I thought that you just had to have, for example:
Maildir/.folder1
Maildir/.folder2
Maildir/.folder3

I.e. the folders are subdirectories, but their names begin with a ".".  Has
it changed since woody or something?

[IMAP] [Courier] Change the folder separator?

2003-11-07 Thread Stephane Bortzmeyer
The courier-imap IMAP server uses the dot ('.') as a separator for
IMAP folders and not the slash ('/'). So, IMAP subfolders are not nice
Unix subdirectories.

Is there a way to change it? Reading the source code, it seems it is
not easy, there is not even a '#define FOLDER_SEP .', rather the
literal dot is used in several places.
