Hi,
I'm looking for a decent imap server that supports hierarchical folders.
My first try was Cyrus, but that one is too pedantic when accepting
legacy emails. Other suggestions were Courier and Dovecot with maildir
storage format.
Now I have lots of folders with dots in their names. And both Courier
and Dovecot treat the dot as hierarchy separator. Frequently, domain
names (as in mail.google.com) are used as folder names in my system, and
these get messed up.
Is there a way in either Courier or Dovecot to allow dots '.' in folder
names?
It's not Courier and Dovecot, that are the problem, but that
*Maildir* uses dots as hierarchy separator, Could you change the
dots to underscores?
BTW, you seem to be using a 2 year old version of Mozilla. Time to
upgrade!!!!
Cyrus has "Unix Hierarchy Convention", that appears to work well.
With Dovecot, I tried to set 'separator' to '/' in the 'namespace'
construct, but it did not help.
How can I get this Unix Hierarchy Convention in Courier or Dovecot?
