Is there a way to influence the folder sort order in Dovecot?

WBR, valery

comming from courier it may be a namespace problem

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier

Dovecot configuration

Courier by default uses "INBOX." as the IMAP namespace for private mailboxes. If you want a transparent migration, you'll need to configure Dovecot to use a namespace with "INBOX." prefix as well.

mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir

namespace { prefix = INBOX. separator = . inbox = yes }

Yes, I knew about that. In Courier, we had 'INBOX.' namespace prefix and '.' as a separator. Now we have empty prefix and a '/' as a separator. So, the settings are as follows:

namespace { location = maildir:/usr/mailsuite/data/%d/%n type = private separator = / prefix = inbox = yes }

But I used the courier-dovecot-migrate.pl script from Timo, as recommended. Where might be the traces of Courier (namespace settings etc.) remained? It seems that Courier and Dovecot use separate sets of files in user mailbox. Maybe, the migrate script expects the settings to be prefix = 'INBOX.' and separator = '.', what we don't want, so, we must modify the migrate script to change namespace settings when migrating?

however what you used at migrate, some from your old clients may not update their folder searchlist to/at new namespace, or have fixed prefix setup etc, i didnt remember exactly but i think you can have both namespace setups somehow for stay compatible with "old clients" try search list and wiki
