cvt_xlist_specialuse does not work with subfolders

[Michael Menge]

Hi,

We are testing the migration from Cyrus 2.4.20 to 3.0.7
and have discovered a problem with cvt_xlist_specialuse
(migration of the xlist-* options to specialuse annotations).

Below are the important options from the imapd.conf of the current backends

altnamespace: 1
unixhierarchysep: 1
xlist-sent: Mail.sent
xlist-trash: Mail.trash
xlist-drafts: Mail.drafts
xlist-junk: Mail.v-spam
xlist-spam: Mail.v-spam
specialusealways: 1

--- default ----
virtdomains: off


cvt_xlist_specialuse did only output

will set \drafts for folders named Mail.drafts
will set \sent for folders named Mail.sent
will set \trash for folders named Mail.trash
will set \junk for folders named Mail.s-spam
will set \spam for folders named Mail.v-spam

but was not able to find any mailboxes to update the annotation.

First we suspected that with the changed default setting for unixhierarchysep
the format of xlist- Options might have changed to unixhierarchysep as well.

But setting

xlist-sent: Mail/sent
xlist-trash: Mail/trash
xlist-drafts: Mail/drafts
xlist-junk: Mail/v-spam
xlist-spam: Mail/v-spam

did only change the output of cvt_xlist_specialuse to

will set \drafts for folders named Mail/drafts
will set \sent for folders named Mail/sent
will set \trash for folders named Mail/trash
will set \junk for folders named Mail/s-spam
will set \spam for folders named Mail/v-spam

but it still didn't find any mailboxes to update the annotations.

After changing the xlist- option to a direct folder of the INBOX e.g. Mail
cvt_xlist_specialuse was able to find the folder and set the annotation.

Is there a way to set the specialuse annotations with cyradm or perl script?

Regards
