Hello Aki,
the command works and shows the full path to the folder. However,
"dovecot mailbox list -s -u <username> <mailbox-wildcard>" did not list
the mailbox, so I tried to subscribe to it. It's listed now, but I still
cannot subscribe to it using Thunderbird.
I'm using dovecot to archive my emails locally, using getmail to receive
mails from my provider and managing these using Thunderbird
(IMAP-Server: local Dovecot, SMTP-Server: remote).
Kind regards,
Peter

Hello,
as I need a mailbox locally only just for filtering, I've tried to
manually create it (using Maildir as backend):
1. Created a folder in the appropriate location under /home/vmail with
subfolders cur, new, tmp.
2. Set the same user:group as for the other folders (i.e. vmail:vmail).
3. Restarted Dovecot and Email-Client (Thunderbird).
However, I cannot subscribe to the new folder. What am I missing here?
Kind regards,
Peter
You sure you put it in right place?
You can check the path with
doveadm mailbox path -u username MailboxName
it does not have to exist to check the path.
