If user sets folder preferences to use sent subfolders, sent_subfolders plugin updates sent_folder value to INBOX.Sent/something. After that undefined sent_subfolder_base starts using this INBOX.Sent/something value and '/something' suffix is appended on every folder list reload. See possible fix at http://pastebin.com/5hRTPQ3t, but it will fix only new option changes. Previous user pref changes will need fixes in user pref data store. Check your user settings in database. If they have sent_subfolders_setting set to some value and sent_subfolder_base is not set, add sent_subfolder_base setting to their preferences with 'INBOX.Sent' value. Please note that you have misconfigured default Sent folder setting in your setup. '.' is one of IMAP folder delimiters and your server uses '/' as delimiter. Based on your default folder prefix I would suspect that your Sent folder should be set to 'Sent' and not to 'INBOX.Sent'. -- Tomas -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/faulty-recursive-subfolder-creation-tp34335884p34344413.html Sent from the squirrelmail-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
