Hi,

I have dovecot-2.2.15 on fedora21 with Thunderbird and having some
difficulty creating subfolders and deleting folders.

Creating subfolders results in a folder at the root with a caret instead
of a slash called folder^subfolder with an entry in .subscriptions with
that name, instead of a new folder under the directory.

I'm also unable to delete any folders. The command from within
Thunderbird is just completely ignored.

Any idea what's happening here?

Thanks,
Alex


This seems to be a bug in Thunderbird:

Wow, that sucks. Open since 2012. Thanks for the info.

This worked well, thanks everyone!

I'm using dovecot-2.2.15 on fedora21 and would like to configure pop3s
and imaps to only listen on localhost and internal addresses.

It seems the listen= parameter only supports ports, not IP addresses.
Is it possible to control which IPs the services listen on?

I'm also interested in knowing the differences between pop3-login and
just the pop3 service? Same with imap-login and imap?

I've searched the wiki and still a bit confused.


listen=127.0.0.1,::1


Ah, looks like I should have been more clear. I meant on a per-service 
basis. Apparently adding listen= in a specific service section isn't 
supported?


service imap-login {
  inet_listener imaps {
listen=192.168.1.100
port = 993
  }
}


# dovecot -n
# 2.2.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf 
line 54: Unknown setting: listen


If not, I'll have to use iptables to block it on the external ports, but 
I'd rather just not have it listen there to begin with, and in addition 
to my firewall policy.


Thanks,
Alex
