Odd IMAP problem with Thunderbird
Hello all,
I'm using James IMAP head to develop a custom IMAP server using Nuxeo as a backend. I'm was testing with various email clients including Thunderbird. With my current code, Claws Mail works just fine, but Thunderbird fails in a odd way.
Right after I launch it, Thunderbird returns the following message:
"The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded:SELECT failed. No such mailbox."
The mailbox in question come out of nowhere: "#private.#private^^Sent^^INBOX". I don't understand where Thunderbird gets that folder name. The Thunderbird IMAP log reports everything is going fine until it decides out of the blue to access that folder name. The relevant parts of the IMAP log are below. I would like to know if anybody has had that problem and could have pointers for me.

Hi Francois,
its hard to say without looking at your code but I will try to give you
some ideas ;)
First of I need some more infos:
* What revision of trunk you use ? Is it really latest head ?
* Do you use the low-level api (mailbox module) or the high-level-api
(store module)
* Did you patch the Namespace processing somehow (because james does
not return the #private as namespace)?
For me it looks like thunderbird gets confused with namespaces. Maybe
you replace the namespace delimiter "." with "^^" ?
Hope this helps,
Norman
Ps: I'm using Thunderbird without problems with james imap (jcr backend)
