Topic: 0.9.3 to 0.9.4 upgrade creates an Archive folder

Hi,

Upgrade from 0.9.3 to 0.9.4 created an Archive folder in all mailboxes because the following was added to Dovecot configuration:

    }

    # Archive
    mailbox Archive {
        auto = subscribe
        special_use = \Archive
    }
    mailbox Archives {
        auto = no
        special_use = \Archive
    }

Don't really like archive folders. Two questions:
-If delete an archive folder in an individual mailbox will it automatically be re-created while the above code is present?
-Does anyone see any downside to removing the above code from Dovecot?

it's ok/safe to remove this folder in Dovecot config file.

If one has the above code in their Dovecot file the archive folder will automatically be re-created even if deleted.

Removing code above allows deletion of the archive folder.

You can also change "auto = subscribe" to "auto = no".
