As a user, I'm able to subscribe to other email boxes, unfortunaetly these emailboxes are not synced to a client. It looks like this isn't implemented.

I'm able to see all my folders but not any of the subscribed ones.
Thanks for maintaining z-push

Hi @Helmut1965,

Can you explain the subscribing, what are you using to do this?

Have you connected with another IMAP client, like Thunderbird, with the same user to see if the folders are available?

Also if you know what IMAP server are you running?

Cheers,
Mat

Hi Mat, thanks for the fast reply.
There is an email address like [email protected] were all the advertising comes in. This is a normal imap mailbox.
Now I'm able to subscribe (I'm on the same imap server) to the advertising mailbox. In case I use for example snappy as an email client, my own folders and also all the subscribed folders are listed in the client.
In the Client I see these boxes as user.advertising or user.ebay

The crazy part, in case I add the word "user' in the IMAP_FOLDER_PREFIX. I can see these boxes, but the send & trash is then not available anymore.

Z-Push, forwards only my own mailfolders to me.
This is Cyrus 3.6.1-Debian-3.6.1-4+deb12u3

Thanks for looking in
Helmut

I think this is how it is meant to work looking at the code. Though ideally this wouldn't affect the trash and sent folders.

As this will need to change the behaviour of this option that other users might rely on, it may need to be classified as an enhancement and wait.

Hi Helmut,

If you look at the issue on Github you can see that I have a tag of enhancement against it, this is what I meant.

You could modify the code yourself to get the required effect that you want. There are other issues and enhancements ahead of yours, if you want guidance from me you may need to wait a bit until I can get to it.

Cheers,
Mat
