Default folder names set by "special use" setting in Dovecot does not work

[ervee]

Based on comments made in this feature request: http://rainloop.uservoice.com/forums/223477-ideas-for-rainloop-webmail/suggestions/6488584-default-system-folders#comments

My Dovecot config snippet:

namespace inbox {
inbox = yes
location =
mailbox saved-drafts {
special_use = \Drafts
}
mailbox spam-mail {
special_use = \Junk
}
mailbox sent-mail {
special_use = \Sent
}
mailbox mail-trash {
special_use = \Trash
}
mailbox saved-messages {
special_use = \Archive
}
prefix =
}

When logging into RainLoop with a new user (or deleted all files in data/data[...snip...]/default/storage/cfg/#user-email#) only Spam has a mailbox-file assigned. And it is the wrong name, not the one supplied by the special use setting in Dovecot. Other folders have no setting (IE "Choose one").

Can you give me (support@rainloop.net) access credentials for test email account?

Perhaps this "telnet" output is sufficient:

You can see how the \Drafts , \Junk , \Archive , \Trash and \Sent mailboxes are communicated.

Please let me know if this is sufficient information because creating a temporary account is a bit of a hassle for me :)

Check please. I think it's already fixed.

Just checked with a new account and the folders are correctly assigned IF the folders exist. So I fixed my new user skeleton to include all the default folders and this seems to work fine.

Thank you!
