Hi -
I think you mean compare the actual mail spool to the contents of (on Arch)
/var/imap/user/d/djones.sub
Yes, as far as I can tell the subscription file contains only valid mail
folders; however, I did notice that one of the mail subfolders starts
with a number:
user.djones.Archives Staff.1Amy Smith
Could this be causing the problem?
One point of confusion. I've been using
unixhierarchysep: yes
ever since I started using 2.4.17, but the entries in user/username.sub
are still listed using "." as the separator? What happens when a user
has a "." in the mailbox folder name?
