It's hard coded, and the feature is even removed in 1.3. :-) Because there is a better way to do things like this. >I am asking because I have my IMAPdir set up like this: >in /home/user/Maildir: >./cur >./new >./tmp >./INBOX/cur -> ../cur >./INBOX/new -> ../new >./INBOX/tmp -> ../tmp >This allows me to keep the qmail delivery settings while still enabling >root-level folders and other goodies.
