 A small Dovecot stone can be bought for 10 euros, a medium sized stone for

 disposed of most of them to our neighbors' yards years ago), so their prices 
 need to be negotiated in advance.

Hi Timo, perhaps the ghosts in the machines will now be very happy
starting eat such bricks starting in the  magical Ides of April
so lets pray you ll never get out of Jedi power to bless the stones
finally i am looking for a stone interface , meanwhile holy rays might
have power enough, preparing them near the servers in the datacenter
where i allready have prisoned evil trolls

[Dovecot] namespace hierarchy

2012-04-01 Thread Tom Fernandes
Hi,

I'm  migrating from Courier to Dovecot and would like to keep the original 
namespace and add two new ones on the new server.

There's only one namespace in Courier which is INBOX. . The seperator is .

In the new server I would like to have 3 namespaces (private, public, shared) 
and use / as separator. Is it possible to keep INBOX. for private, so that 
the users mailboxes appear below the Inbox, but have public and shared on the 
same hierarchy-level like the Inbox?

When I set prefix to INBOX/ for private I get the users mailboxes below the 
Inbox, like I have it Courier now. But then at least the public, probably also 
the shared namespace doesn't work any more. I get unknown subscription 
namespace when trying to subscribe to some of the folders.


My current configuration is:
namespace:
  type: private
  separator: /
  inbox: yes
  list: yes
  subscriptions: yes
namespace:
  type: public
  separator: /
  prefix: public/
  location: maildir:/var/vmail/example.com/public
  list: yes
namespace:
  type: shared
  separator: /
  prefix: shared/%%u/
  location: maildir:%%h/Maildir
  list: yes

warm regards,


Tom

Valid questions, what about Dovecot vStones?

Apart from this practical issue, who is your marketing advisor? Timo in 
cloudy times like these, one needs product names that assure customers 
it's compatible to the Cloud:


I suggest something like:
 Dovecot CloudProtector Stone 2000 S
 Dovecot CloudProtector Stone 4500 GT
 Dovecot CloudProtector Stone 6900 GTX turbo


Also for such sheer value in less nightly calls on broken servers, you 
need to price the things higher. This will underline that the stones are 
of exceptional quality and energy.

Christian
