isn't what they really have is user/userA/INBOX I have several folders that are in the "root" directory tree for my user. not for everyone else. for example, I have folder names as follows: user/joee/ user/joee/Cyrus user/joee/Cyrus/info user/joee/Cyrus/sasl (Now I'm logged into cyradm as the admin when I list these mailboxes) When I create a new folder, I create it in "root". Its root to the user. When I log into cyradm as the user and list the mailboxes, I get: Cyrus Cyrus/info Cyrus/sasl INBOX (\Noinferiors) So can't the user create sub folders in INBOX or at the "root" level to the user. *I have altnamespace: yes in /etc/imapd.conf.
