Hello all:

I have just migrated to a new server. Previously I was using SquirrelMail with
Courier IMAP, but the new server has Dovecot. Initially my SquirrelMail config 
was
simply copied to the new server, and everything seemed to work fine. I want to
revise the config to make it as compatible with Dovecot as possible. I've read 
on
the SM site and through list archives and Googled, but I see lots of conflicting
advice on how to config for Dovecot.

My SM config used on Courier included these settings:

 IMAP Server Type: Courier
 IMAP Folder Delimiter: .
 Default Folder Prefix: INBOX.

As I say, that seemed to work even on Dovecot. Based on info. on SM site and 
others,
I changed to the following:

 IMAP Server Type: Dovecot
 IMAP Folder Delimiter: detect
 Default Folder Prefix: ""   (blank/empty)

However, once I did that I saw the following error:

ERROR: Could not complete request.
Query: CREATE "Trash"
Reason Given: Unknown namespace.

So, I left Server Type as Dovecot, but reverted the other two values to what I 
had
on Courier server, so now I have this:

 IMAP Server Type: Dovecot
 IMAP Folder Delimiter: .
 Default Folder Prefix: INBOX.

Again, as with the original Courier config, this seems to work. But, is this 
optimal
or correct? Could someone in the know please give me some info. about the proper
config values for a Dovecot server?

Thanks.
