We have installed RedHat's RPM package squirrelmail-1.4.8-5.el5_4.10 on a RedHat RHEL 5.5 server. Squirrelmail connects to our mailbox server which also runs RHEL 5.5 and the dovecot-1.0.7-7.el5 IMAP server RPM package. The Dovecot IMAP server uses Sendmail as MTA and mailboxes in mbox format. Squirrelmail seems to be working fine, except for the collapsible subfolders. The user has enabled Options - Folder Preferences "Enable Collapsable Folders: Yes". However, in the left-hand Folders panel the subdirectories themselves are not shown at all (these are real filesystem subdirectories, not folders with subfolders). All of the subfolders in the subdirectories appear as one very long list of folders, and there are no + or - signs allowing to collapse the subfolders (actually, there are a handful of subdirectories which do in fact have + or - next to the first folder in the subdirectory). The subdirectories are indented about 2 characters, so Squirrelmail seems to realize that they are subfolders. Our Squirrelmail config has been set to $imap_server_type='dovecot', but still it seems that Squirrelmail doesn't handle filesystem subdirectories on the Dovecot server correctly. From my reading the documentation and the Changelog there doesn't appear to be any documented feature in Squirrelmail which corrects this broken behavior. The same issue was reported on this list on November 5, 2008: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=20353125.post%40talk.nabble.com&forum_name=squirrelmail-users Questions: 1. Does anyone know of a Squirrelmail config that fixes Collapsable Folders with a Dovecot IMAP server ? 2. Is this really a bug in Squirrelmail, and how can it be fixed ?
