Folder xapian-indexes shows up as IMAP folder for clients #115

Closed madduck closed 2 years ago

madduck commented 2 years ago

The plugin puts the indices into a folder xapian-indexes in the mail root folder. While not a valid Maildir, this still causes clients, such as Apple Mail and Thunderbird to show a new folder, when Dovecot is configured with layout=fs.

Could the location of the indices be made configurable? Ideally, I'd like for the indices to sit outside of the mail root, even.

Would like to request this feature as well!

We´re currently replacing solr with XAPIAN (for the mailcow-dockerized project) and it would be awesome to set the path of the indexes.

@madduck @DerLinkman Location of indexes is a dovecot feature https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/mail_location/ this plugin follow the said confiruation in dovecot.conf
