james on linux - maildir format issue 3.0.0 beta 5
I am testing james on a linux server with milder format enabled, using ldap as my user repository. In the process of moving the maildir folder location, I noticed that james created a folder in the default location called %domain, per this config line in mailbox-maildir.properties:
maildir.folder=/srv/james/store/maildir/%domain/%user
so it looks like the config picked up %domain in this file as a literal instead of a variable. I will note that it is picking up %user as a variable and creating individual user folders. Is this is bug in beta 5? Could it possibly be a configuration problem with my system?

oh, I see what you mean. I had that issue with a specific older
version/snapshot.
If you use the latest snapshot, you will get it right.

I understand. The user folders are ok, it's the domain folder that is
wrong. The directory on the server is: ./maildir/%domain. I'm not talking
about the config file entry, I mean the actual directory in use on the
server.
%domain should be replaced with an actual domain name, but the server is
using %domain as the directory name instead of replacing it. See what I
mean? The directory on the server should be:
./maildir/<name_of_a_domain>
but instead it is:
./maildir/%domain
I was missing an initial entry in the JAMES_DOMAIN table when the folder
was created like this, could that be the issue? I have the entry now,
though, and the server still seems to be using %domain instead of the real
domain name folder. Could that be cached somewhere? This isn't a big issue,
but I would like to get it sorted out.
