when a user tries to create a sub-subfolder in Archiv, he gets the message:

"Mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes"

Like Phill said, the problem is mbox format. If you don't want to switch
away from it, you can still create Archiv/stuff, if you just don't first
create Archiv as a mailbox. In IMAP protocol terms you need to:

Create Archiv/ directory to filesystem:
1 CREATE Archiv/
Create the mailbox file:
2 CREATE Archiv/child

The 1 step is actually optional. In any case you can probably do both in
the client UI as well by just adding the '/' manually.



thanks for the hint with mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir.
Creating sub and sub-subfolders works.

but now, when I'm sending an email from us...@ourdomain.at to us...@ourdomain.at, the mail is delivered to the users mailbox in /var/spool/mail/<user2>.

How to I tell sendmail to deliver the mails to the right users Inbox (~/Maildir)?

We are using
# yum list | grep -i sendmail
sendmail.x86_64        8.13.8-8.el5    installed
sendmail-cf.x86_64    8.13.8-8.el5    installed

many thanks
Richard


sorry for the last mail:

procmail was the answer.

# cat /etc/procmailrc
DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/

Do I have to make more adjustments in procmailrc for dovecot/sendmail?
special for "maildir:~/Maildir"?

many thanks
Richard
