You are right. In the meantime I found out that the default config in thunderbird lists only subscribed folders. Changing this setting makes it work as expected. Thank you for your hint. -- Regards, Stephan

Sorry, it seems not that easy.
I had to find out that sylpheed works correctly now, but thunderbird does not
show anything, just like before.
Is there a way to log all imap commands and replies?

Ok, I solved it thanks to your striking example. The problem was: the clients
remembered something from earlier sessions where the dovecot config was
probably not correct. I removed the mailbox from the client and recreated it
and now I see the correct list of folders. Thanks a lot for this hint.

Works for me, Dovecot v2.2RC3
mail_location = maildir:/home/fs:LAYOUT=fs

You mentioned you set LAYOUT=fs, but the above sounds like you're still using Maildir++. Set mail_debug=yes and see what it says.

Ok, I thought the setup was pretty clear, but let me give more details. I have _no_ problem with understanding the several maildir formats, I am here using maildir (not ++). LAYOUT=fs therefore. My expectation was that directories would be shown as folders through imap. But they are in fact not shown at all, neither in thunderbird nor in sylpheed (to name another client). > b) you mentioned "thunderbird", which does not use maildir to my > knowledge, but mbox, so simply look at > http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation/mbox > > You might want to place control files somewhere else, see CONTROL= and > INDEX=. Uh? thunderbird is a client, the client should not bother at all about maildir or mbox on the server. Again, assume I have a mailserver. The MTA produces directories like: ///new/ ...//new/ ... ...//new/ (clearly a maildir-alike format) Now on this server I want dovecot to hand this layout to some email-client (on another box, lets say some wind*ws), thunderbird if possible, via imap. That's about all. I tried to tell dovecot that is mail_location=maildir::LAYOUT=fs Yes, there is only _one_ user. My expectation was to see as imap-folder but I see exactly zero. If I try to create a new folder from thunderbird side a directory is created inside , so generally dovecot understood the idea, only directories that are already there are not shown. -- Regards, Stephan

[Dovecot] How to see folders/subfolders/emails through imap
Hello all, I am trying to do something very simple - at least thats what I thought. I have some fs, it contains folders and subfolders with email files ordered like maildir. Now I try to set up dovecot on top simply to let some imap account watch these email files. But I cannot see any folders at all. I can create new folders and see them, but I cannot create subfolders as subdirs like "folder/subfolder". Instead I get "folder.subfolder" dirs on the fs. I tried to set the separator to "/", but that does not help at all. Is there some easy way to configure dovecot to display: ///new/files... /new/files... /new/files... according to fs layout on some imap-client (like thunderbird)? -- Regards, Stephan
