[Dovecot] namespace and list=children inconsistencies
Hi,
after setting up a new Dovecot server with shared and public namespaces,
both with hidden=no and list=children, I see some inconsistency in the
folder listing.
. NAMESPACE
* NAMESPACE (("" "/")) (("Shared/" "/")) (("Public/" "/"))
. OK Namespace completed.
. LIST "" *
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "INBOX"
* LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "Shared/u...@do.main"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "Shared/u...@do.main/INBOX"
* LIST (\HasChildren) "/" "Public"
. OK List completed.
. LIST "Shared/" *
* LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "Shared/u...@do.main"
. OK List completed.
. LIST "Public/" *
. OK List completed.
With LIST "Shared/" the other users INBOX is missing, so with namespace
capable clients like Thunderbird it is impossible to see or subscribe
this folder.
The "Public/" namespace has some subfolders, but only for other
acl_groups and I don't have rights to access any of them. So the LIST
"Public/" looks good. However, with LIST "" * it is shown without the
trailing slash and with \HasChildren where it should be hidden.
Here is the relevant doveconf -n output:
...
namespace {
list = children
location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/shared/%%u
prefix = Shared/%%u/
separator = /
subscriptions = no
type = shared
}
namespace {
list = children
location = cydir:/var/spool/imap/public:INDEX=~/public
prefix = Public/
separator = /
subscriptions = no
type = public
}
...

You're right, I forgot at least to include the dovecot version ;-)

After restarting Thunderbird now I can see and subscribe the other users
INBOX. However, I still think that a "LIST Shared/ *" should include
*all* sub mailboxes. Or am I wrong?

I found a solution for this annoying "Public/" namespace vs. nonexistent
"Public" mailbox behavior:
I'm trying to setup per-domain public folders. First I used
location=cydir:/path/%d/public:..., but Dovecot doesn't expand the %d
variable inside type=public namespaces.
Next I used location=cydir:/path/public:... and created
/path/public/do.main and a dovecot-acl file inside with content
"group=do.main lrswi". This works fine for users with the
acl_groups=do.main extra field, they see their Public/ namespace. But
users without a group or users in a group for that no public folder
exists are wondering why they see a "Public" mailbox, which gives an
error on select or subscribe...
Now I return CONCAT('cydir:/path/', `domain`, '/public:INDEX=~/public')
AS `namespace/pub/location` in the user_query, which works fine for all
users in all domains :-) as long as there is either no subfolder or a
subfolder/dovecot-acl with "anyone lrs" in /path/do.main/public.

I really should read RFC 3501 completely. It's been many years since I tried to understand the now obsolete RFC 2060 ;-) I always thought that LIST "some/mail/box/" "*" LIST "" "some/mail/box/*" LIST "some/mail/" "box/*" are all equivalent. > and: > A client SHOULD NOT use such a reference argument except > at the explicit request of the user. Hmmm, but this paragraph starts with: If the reference argument is not a level of mailbox hierarchy (that is, it is a \NoInferiors name), and/or the reference argument does not end with the hierarchy delimiter, it is implementation-dependent how this is interpreted. ... A client SHOULD NOT use such a reference argument except at the explicit request of the user. So Shared/ seems to be a valid reference argument that may be used by clients, because it is a level of mailbox hierarchy, it is not a \NoInferiors name and it ends with the hierarchy delimiter. Anyway, it works now. Thunderbird always uses "" as reference argument to list the shared namespace. And for LIST "" "Shared/*" dovecot returns all sub mailboxes. However, I still don't know why TB first displayed only Shared/u...@do.main without the shared mailboxes... Holger

If mail_location is the same for all users you don't need to override it with "SELECT ... maildir as mail...". But if you do you have to prefix it with the mailbox format. Holger

Ok, seems to be a bug in the listescape plugin. If I remove it from mail_plugins renaming works fine. Unfortunately, that's not an option because some users have folders with '.' in its name. Another issue that is probably related: if a user shares a _sub_folder to other users, it is not visible for them while the listescape plugin is enabled. It works only for root level folders. Holger

With the listescape plugin you can have almost any character in mailbox
names. See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Listescape

[Dovecot] Panic: file mailbox-list-maildir.c: line 133: unreached
I converted personal mailboxes from maildir to sdbox. Public mailboxes
are still in maildir format, because I need per-user seen flags.
However, if the user is subscribed to public mailboxes and the client
sends 'LIST (SUBSCRIBED) "" *', dovecot crashes with:
