Hook scripts

[Jean-Luc Wasmer]

Hi,
How can I call a specific script when a user connects to the server or 
does any other stuff (like read or erase mail)?

Thanks,
JL

Re: Directory that is a mailbox

[Jean-Luc Wasmer]

  I never expected to get a positive answer for my request...
  I received a patch... incredible!

 Let me emphasize again that I am not promising to support this or to
 ensure it works with new releases.

You were perfectly clear... I was just surprised to realize I was not the
only one wanting this feature.

Thanks again for the patch...

Directory that is a mailbox

[Jean-Luc Wasmer]

Hi,


The FAQ section 1.10 says:

Some mailbox formats, including the default which is the traditional UNIX
mailbox format, are stored as a single file containing all the messages.
UNIX does not permit a name in the filesystem to be both a file and a
directory; consequently you can not have a sub-mailbox within a mailbox that
is in one of these formats.
[...]
It is always permissible to create a directory that is not a mailbox, and
have sub-mailboxes under it.

I use this a lot. Unfortunatly, if I select a directory I get an error
because it's not a mailbox.

Would it be possible to interpret a file wih a special name (eg. _) as the
mailbox of the parent directory?

So having the following file system tree:

Clients/
_
ClientA
ClientB
ClientC

would appear to the IMAP client like

Clients
ClientA
ClientB
ClientC

with Clients ClientA ClientB and ClientC four different mailboxes.

Mail in the Clients mailbox would be stored in the file Clients/_

Thanks,

JL
