Hey,
I set up a new mailserver with postfix and Dovecot some days ago, everything is working except for Thunderbird not showing any folders.
Evolution shows me all folders.
I migrated from a Courier install using imapsync.
In the filesystem the folders don't have a INBOX
in their name, so the tho folders ar called .Folder 1
not .INBOX.Folder 1
.
This is the output of dovecot -n
:
