I'm configuring using the Admin plugin. I looked at doc/presets.txt. With those Dovecot settings, I get that error: ERROR: Could not complete request. Query: CREATE "Trash" Reason Given: Unknown namespace. The key value seems to be "Default Folder Prefix" (default_folder_prefix). If it is set to <none> (empty string) as specified for Dovecot in doc/presets.txt, I get that error. But if I change it to what I used for Courier, INBOX., then everything seems to work. This is what I have now: IMAP Server Type: Dovecot IMAP Folder Delimiter: detect Default Folder Prefix: INBOX. I don't understand why doc/presets.txt Dovecot settings give me that error, so even though things appear to work with different settings I don't know if they are optimal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
