RE: [vchkpw] IMAP dot folders
There's the answer to my question! So IMAP is only doing the creating because of the scheme passed down from the IMAP client. And since I don't use Squirrel or SQWebmail it isn't creating the dot files everyone speaks of. Thank you!

Pine likes making "sent-mail", sqwebmail I think makes something else, Mail.app has yet another scheme... It's a shame the IMAP spec doesn't include a standard naming scheme for standard mailboxes.

If Squirrel Mail does use IMAP to create them does that mean that other webmail/IMAP systems would also create them since IMAP is doing the creating? I am using qmail + vpopmail + courier-imap + squirrelmail on my servers. I found that the folder names corresponded exactly with the folder names in SquirrelMail. Since SquirrelMail uses IMAP, Im assuming it told courier-imap to make these folders. -- Aj. Systems Administrator / Developer

I ask this because I notice that there aren't any created automatically when creating a new email account. Doesn't SquirrelMail create these using IMAP? -- Aj. Systems Administrator / Developer
