<p><font size="-1"><font face="Liberation Mono">Hello all,</font></font></p>
<p><font size="-1"><font face="Liberation Mono">I would like to have
spam messages delivered to special-use \Junk folder. As for my
tests, this is possible using plus-addressing + the 'anyone p'
permission on Junk + special-use "\Junk" attribute set on Junk
mailbox; but in our setup, the special-use attribute "\Junk"
is already set into many different mailboxes (apart from Junk)
by the diversity of imap clients. And cyrus does not allow to
have more than one folder with the same special-use attribute
- the rfc leaves that part of the implementation deliberately
open:<br>

<pre class="newpage" style="font-size: 13.3333px; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; break-before: page; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> Servers MAY allow the creation of a special-use mailbox even if one
so designated already exists. This might have the effect of moving
the special use from the old mailbox to the new one, or might create
multiple mailboxes with the same special use. Alternatively, servers
MAY refuse the creation, considering the designation to be a
conflict.

<font size="-1"><font face="Liberation Mono">So, my question is
how is people on the list handling this? My idea right now is
to create the user Junk mailbox if there is not already one,
and set the special-use attribute "\Junk" there if it is not
set on another mailbox. Spam will end on the Junk mailbox, but
this will not always be the special-use "\junk" maailbox. This
is not perfect but I guess cyrus refuses to have 2 folders
with the same special-use atttribute for a reason ...</font></font></p>
<p><font size="-1"><font face="Liberation Mono">Any ideas or advice
would be much appreciated.</font></font></p>
