It looks like this is already the rule for maildir, where one can't remove the folder if any files or subdirectories are present.
Oh? I don't remember this kind of a feature..
I'd like to get this option for mbox folders, as I'd like to prevent "accidents" where users accidentally delete large folders by clicking the wrong thing and then too-quickly approving the confirmation dialog that pops up. (Impatient upper level management tends to do this. ;))
The problem is that I think this should be more of a per-client setting rather than a global setting. For example with Thunderbird (well, and non-mboxes) deleting the mailbox just renames it under Trash. Disallowing that would be annoying. And I suppose this issue really should be handled by the client UI instead of the server..
Anyway, I guess it would be nice to have this, but I also really hate adding more settings to Dovecot right now.
