Ken,

        Thanks for the prompt response.  I tried that, restarted imapd, and
still get the same error.  Any idea what module the code for this sits in, I
can take a look, too?

Did you create /misc2/spool/imap and give it the proper permissions?

Hi all,

I'm actually experiencing the same problem.  I'd not had any need for
partitions until recently (lots of growth).  However, I can't seem to

get

them to work, even after shutting down everything IMAP-related, and

killing

any stray processes (there weren't any).

I'm getting "Unknown/invalid partition" while using the example from the
O'Reilly book (Chapter 9).

-------------------------------
Here's the pertinent imapd.conf lines:
-------------------------------

defaultpartition: default

# The directory for the different partitions
#
partition-default: /misc1/spool/imap
partition-1: /misc2/spool/imap

-------------------------------
Here's a cut and paste example:
-------------------------------

localhost> cm user/testmailbox 1
createmailbox: Unknown/invalid partition

I'd have to check the code,  but I'm guessing that partition names can't
start with a digit.  Try 'imap1' (or something) instead of '1'.
