Query: CREATE "Sent", Reason Given: Invalid mailbox name.

[Mitzi]

Hi,

I have Fedora 7 installed and followed Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier And MySQL (Fedora Core 5) (http://www.howtoforge.com/fedora_virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier) with some adjustments for 7.

I can send and recieve with Eudora without a problem.

But I want to be able to use webmail as well, so I installed SquirrelMail.
When I login to SquirrelMail I get the following error in the left menu (see the attachted screen shot):

ERROR: Could not complete request.
Query: CREATE "Sent"
Reason Given: Invalid mailbox name.

I searched for a sollution, but the one that is offered, doesn't seem to work.
In /etc/squirrelmail/config.php changed I changed:
$default_folder_prefix = 'mail/';
to:
$default_folder_prefix = 'INBOX.';

Can someone please give me directions how to solve this?
Thanks

Yes, it does help big time :)
Its working now.
Explanation from squirrelmail.org WIKI is kinda confusing
because I thought I need to comment out/remove $default_folder_prefix from /etc/squirrelmail/config_local.php file which in my case did not work, so I tried to comment out in /etc/squirrelmail/config.php file and it worked,
Anyway, thanks for replying!
