I have recently tried to upgrade a horde installation on a FreeBSD 5.3 x86 computer. In the new /usr/local/www/horde/imp/config/servers.php.dist file there is a reference to http://wiki.horde.org/ImpUWIMAPNamespaces. This web page recommends me to apply a patch to the /usr/ports/mail/imap-uw/work/imap-2004g/src/osdep/unix/env_unix.c file in order to change the mailsubdir from '' to 'mail' for the imapd server. I have tried to apply the patch, but afterwords the imapd server still doesn't seem to work as intended. I have probably done something wrong. Here is what I have done: 1. I saved the patch to the /usr/ports/mail/imap-uw/files/ directory and named the file patch-src-osdep-unix-env_unix.c-horde-imp 2. cd /usr/ports/mail/imap-uw make patch (I had to replace some spaces with tabs in the patch file before the patches was applied correctly. Probably because I pasted the patch from the web page). 3. I checked the file /usr/ports/mail/imap-uw/work/imap-2004g/src/osdep/unix/env_unix.c and the patch seemed to have been applied correctly. 4. make -DWITH_SSL_AND_PLAINTEXT -DFORCE_PKG_REGISTER reinstall 5. I checked the date of the /usr/local/libexec/imapd file, and I confirmed that it had bee updated. 6. reboot 7. At last I tested the imap server from a Mozilla Thunderbird client where I changed my "IMAP server directory" setting from ~/mail/ to nothing. (Removed my ~/mail/ setting). Now all my files in my home directory appeared when I opened the Subscibe window. This is not the intended behavior. I know that I can make a /etc/c-client.cf file to fix this, but this is not a recommended method, and it also affects pine and the location of the users mbox files. Has anyone managed to change the behavior of imap-uw imapd server as intended using this patch ? If so, how did you do it ? Anders Gytri
