RE: [vchkpw] IMAP dot folders

2003-03-26 Thread Wil Hatfield - HVHM Customer Care

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!

And the fun part starts when you throw multiple mail clients into the mix.
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.

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?
