Actually I appear to have fixed this (typically, after several hours of scouring squirrelmail lists, the answer appears to be on the dovecot website...) although I already thought I was using these settings, deleting config.php and rerunning perl 'conf.pl', settings as below, seems to have done the trick. folder prefix: 'none' (literally) leaving it blank is not an option. apparently the default is to have all your folders as subfolers of INBOX (which mine are not) server software: 'other' (it would seem that dovecot doesn't need fancy workarounds) > Thanks and, uh , apologies for wasting your time and bandwidth... :-) > > Stuart > -- > Stuart Sears RHCE, RHCX > Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur -- Stuart Sears RHCE, RHCX Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur
