Hey again,
I've found a working configuration: mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME=.
I use a dot instead of slash or empty value.
Now my folder structure looks like I want and Dovecot is working fine.
Can anyone (maybe even a Dovecot developer?) say if the configuration is
okay? I've tried to check the source code, but I don't know C as good as
it's needed for that.
Greetings,
Hativ

Hey to all,
is it possible to get rid of the "dbox-Mails"-folder when using sdbox?
Currently my folder structure looks like this (I hope the output from
tree would be formatted well):
/srv/mail/
└── example.com
└── user
├── dovecot-acl-list
├── dovecot-attributes
├── dovecot.list.index.log
├── dovecot.mailbox.log
├── dovecot-uidvalidity
├── dovecot-uidvalidity.5b3f746f
├── mailboxes
│ ├── Drafts
│ │ └── dbox-Mails
│ │ └── dovecot.index.log
│ ├── INBOX
│ │ └── dbox-Mails
│ │ ├── dovecot.index.cache
│ │ ├── dovecot.index.log
│ │ └── u.1
│ ├── Junk
│ │ └── dbox-Mails
│ │ └── dovecot.index.log
│ ├── Sent
│ │ └── dbox-Mails
│ │ └── dovecot.index.log
│ └── Trash
│ └── dbox-Mails
│ └── dovecot.index.log
└── subscriptions
I would like to let it look like this:
/srv/mail/
└── example.com
└── user
├── dovecot-acl-list
├── dovecot-attributes
├── dovecot.list.index.log
├── dovecot.mailbox.log
├── dovecot-uidvalidity
├── dovecot-uidvalidity.5b3f746f
├── mailboxes
│ ├── Drafts
│ │ └── dovecot.index.log
│ ├── INBOX
│ │ └── dovecot.index.cache
│ │ └── dovecot.index.log
│ │ └── u.1
│ ├── Junk
│ │ └──dovecot.index.log
│ ├── Sent
│ │ └── dovecot.index.log
│ └── Trash
│ └── dovecot.index.log
└── subscriptions
My path configuration:
mail_attribute_dict = file:%h/dovecot-attributes
mail_home = /srv/mail/%d/%n/
mail_location = sdbox:~/
I have tried
mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME=
and
mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME=/
but it doesn't work.
The first doesn't change anything. The second auto-creates the folders
after first login like I want, but after next login they are greyed
out and no longer accessible.
Is it possible to get rid of the "dbox-Mails"-folder? I want this
because I don't like to have an unneeded deep folder structure. Or is
there a good reason to let the "dbox-Mails" folder in my setup?
Greetings,
Hativ
