ok in general
the mail client (thunderbird etc) will usually create these upon the
first login
i on the other hand (because this was always a crap shoot with cyrus)
take the time to make the special folders manually.
example (done in python):
command2 =
commands.getoutput('/usr/local/bin/doveadm mailbox create -s -u %s Sent'
%str(username))
print 'Command2 : %s' %command2
command3 =
commands.getoutput('/usr/local/bin/doveadm mailbox create -s -u %s
Trash' %str(username))
print 'Command3 : %s' %command3
command4 =
commands.getoutput('/usr/local/bin/doveadm mailbox create -s -u %s
Drafts' %str(username))
print 'Command4 : %s' %command4
also note dovecot config's
namespace inbox {
inbox = yes
location =
mailbox Drafts {
auto = subscribe
special_use = \Drafts
}
mailbox Sent {
auto = subscribe
special_use = \Sent
}
mailbox Trash {
auto = subscribe
special_use = \Trash
}
prefix =
separator = /
}
will / should do the same thing.
Happy Wednesday !!!

Hello
I removed the user in static userdb file, and deleted
/var/mail/vhosts/$domain/$user dir.
when I recreated the user, the system dirs (sent, draft etc) disappeared.
Anything wrong here? Thank you.
