I'm having an issue that may not apply directly to Squirrelmail but if someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
I configured a Suse 8.1 box with Squirrelmail 1.4.3a to query my Postfix 1.1.12 and UW-IMAP 2001a-142. (PHP 4.2.2-276, Apache 1.3.26-159) and it is working fine after some configuration issues were resolved regarding folder prefixs. As I was reviewing my mailbox through Outlook, after sending and receiving test through Squirrelmail, I noticed that I had a folder named "~". This folder was empty except a Sent Items and Trash folder. In my genius I deleted the "~" folder as I thought it was just an empty folder. Of course deleting this "folder" deleted all my email and folders except what was in /var/spool/mail; deleting the "~" folder deleted all the mail in my home directory. Does anyone know why this happened or any way to recover the mail? I am using the mbox format. I believe the "~" folder is related to the configuration of the folder prefix settings for SQM/UW-IMAP. I tried various settings based on ideas in the FAQ section of the Squirrelmail website. I posted to the UW-IMAP newsgroup but the only reply so far is from someone who had the same problem. Thanks in advance. Paul ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
