OK - I have it working - it seems the problem was slashes / in the existing Outlook directory names which imap does not allow. here is my only problem now; My incoming mail is still being directed to /var/mail in mbox format - which is what I want, as most users are not imap. but opening the imap inbox gives an error, presumably because it is looking for maildir format and is finding mbox. Can dovecot be permitted to read incoming mail from as mbox format? I have this in my dovecot.conf; mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u I am wondering if something like; mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir/:INBOX=mbox:/var/mail/%u would work _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
