User/IMAP folder creation
« on: October 04, 2006, 07:43:27 PM »
Hello all.

I was wondering if somebody could tell me where I can find and add to the IMAP folders that are created when a new user is added to the server. I need to add Trash and Sent along with Inbox and junkmail whenever a user is created.

Thanks!

You can make your changes in /etc/e-smith/skel/user, but those folders will still need to be associated within imp.  You may be able to create custom templates for imp/config/prefs.php and get them automatically associated.  But, you will have to test and report success or failure.

Hi mace68.

What did you end up doing? I need to create a sent folder for my imap accounts and have outlook and the webmail pick it up as a folder and store the sent emails to it?

Thanks

Look at imp/config/prefs.php and search for 135sent_mail_folder.  You should be able to see what you need to do and make the appropriate templates-custom fragment.
