problems with Imp 3 and Courier
« on: April 26, 2002, 06:59:51 PM »
Hi.
I accomplished a Upgrade of Courier and IMP with the HowTo. Everything functions so far to IMAP and IMP. However if I want to put on a new folder under IMP get I the following error message.

The folder "new" was not created. This is what the server said: Invalid mailbox name.

Which is wrong.

thx

Courier uses a different folder structure than the IMAP server included with SME.  To get it to work properly, you'll need to change the IMP configuration.  Here's what you'll need to do:

# mkdir /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/home/httpd/html/horde/imp/config/servers.php
# cd /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/home/httpd/html/horde/imp/config/servers.php
# cp /etc/e-smith/templates/home/httpd/html/horde/imp/config/servers.php/40Servers .
# pico 40Servers

You'll need to change two lines in here:

    'folders' => '', // this is two single quotes, not a double quote
    'namespace' => 'INBOX.', // be sure to include the trailing period

Save the file, and

# /sbin/e-smith/expand-template /home/httpd/html/horde/imp/config/servers.php

You should be ready to go.
