I have the same issue.

My observations are:

 - this only happens with shared/public folders
 - this only happens if the directory is empty

So in your example this would mean the public mailbox "test/2nd" has never had 
any emails in it.

My workaround is: Put an email into the mailbox and delete it. This fixes the "view 
is inconsistent" error permanently for this folder.

Hopefully this description is of any help to the devs, so that this can be 
fixed directly in dovecot.

Hi all,

I am currently facing an issue with Dovevot version 2.2.29.1 where
subfolders in a public namespace are only
visible to the 2nd folder level:

namespace Public -> folder "1st" -> folder -> "2nd" -> folder "3rd" 

When one user creates a subfolder below the 2nd level other users do
not see that folder and are unable to
subscribe to this folder. Folders created under the 1st level however
are visible and subscribable by other
users.

namespace {
disabled = no
hidden = no
ignore_on_failure = no
inbox = no
list = children
type = public
separator = /
prefix = Public/
location = maildir:/var/vmail/public:INDEXPVT=~/Maildir/public
subscriptions = no
}


I do not know at which point ( dovecot update ) this issue appeared.

Does anyone face the same problem ?

Thank you for your kind help

best regards
Andreas


Hi all,

I have just recognized that there seems to be something wrong with the
per user seen flag indexes. In the dovecot log file I get a lot of
those errors:

Error: /var/vmail/domain/someuser/Maildir/public/.test.2nd
/dovecot.index.pvt reset, view is now inconsistent
Error:
/var/vmail/domain/someuser/Maildir/public/.test.2nd/dovecot.index.pvt
view is inconsistent

Error: /var/vmail/domain/someuser/Maildir/public/.test.2nd.3rd
/dovecot.index.pvt reset, view is now inconsistent
Error:
/var/vmail/domain/someuser/Maildir/public/.test.2nd.3rd/dovecot.index.pvt
view is inconsistent



Could this be the cause of the issue ? How can this be fixed ?

Thank you for your kind help

Hi!

The second level issue is because thunderbird has a bug. You can see the
third level and so on in subscribe view by closing and opening the 2nd
level.

Hello Aki,

thank you for the tip. I have tried with another mail client and could 
see and subscribe to
the subfolders in the public namespace without any problem. Hope that 
Thunderbird gets

fixed soon.

However, I still see a lot of those index errors in the log file. Any 
idea how to fix that ?


Thank you for your kind help.

best regards
Andreas

Same problem here. I posted it months ago in this list, and still waiting for 
comments or solution. The many upgrades did not help either. Given the lack of 
response from the list, this is either an ages-old problem that everybody has 
and has learned to ignore, or a configuration problem that one ought to solve 
by simply following the manual. No, the manual did not help.
