Hello, before paying any effort, what could be the reason that in Postfix, Dovecot, Thunderbird client setup no Sent Items folder is created on the server as a first mail is sent on the newly created account. The mail is sent, but Thunderbird saves it instead in local sent items. Also when checking account settings the 'save copy setting' has changed from server to local and when setting it back to server same happens when a new mail is sent.
For comparison the Apple Mail client creates a 'Sent Items' folder on the server, which afterwards can be selected manually in Thunderbird from that point on to store sent mails. Received mails are stored under /var/mail/vhosts/domain/user in either case. This issue appeared as I configured an existing server to use another domain name. and thought replacing the host names under /etc/postfix and /etc/dovecot would suffice, besides of course replacing the mail addresses in the mysql table. Any idea what causes this. As the mail is however sent correctly, what could make creating the sent items folder 'fail' as it somehow appears. Would logging the IMAP communication from the client to the server help finding the reason if it is at all possible or otherwise I would need to compile the code with printf's. Server is Ubuntu 22. _______________________________________________ dovecot mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
