I'm wondering if anyone here has set up horde and IMP with dovecot and gotten the folder system working.

I have dovecot using maildirs with local users and all is good. Following a post by Acid_Kewpie, I thought I'd have a look at horde and roundcube. Roundcube is out since CentOS doesn't use php 5.2.

When I set up horde, all seems to work, except when logging in to mail, the inbox is shown, complete with what looks like the correct message content, however none of the other folders that are there show up. These show up fine in squirrelmail, via thunderbird, etc.

I find the documentation for horde pretty tough to find anything useful in, nore does google turn up anything useful.

Running the test.php page shows me that NAMESPACE = "", but since I can find very little on what this parameter is meant to either do or look like, I'm not sure if this is correct. The test also indicated that the imap sever accepts the CHILDREN directive if that makes any sense?

Does anyone have any experience with this one?

Edit - I'm pretty sure it's not an SELinux issue

EDIT 2

I think this is solved. I added 'folders' => true, in servers.php, even though I'm sure I'd tried this already. Seems to take a little while to come up though

The namespace parameter directs your IMAP client where to look for mail folders. So for example, if your mail folders are under $HOME/Maildir, then set your namespace to "Maildir".

Usually though, I find I don't have to specify the namespace unless I explicitly want to be storing my mail somewhere outside where the IMAP server is putting my mail folders / files by default.

I thought it would be something like that, but try finding details anywhere in the docs.
