Re: Mapping INBOX to a folder

Hi Nicolas,
thanks for the instructions - I'm not a programmer, so it's all 
trial-and-error for me ...
I read the page you mentioned and tried to fit your example to my needs 
- but although it works in the python shell it doesn't for my 
.offlineimaprc

Lets' go for the shell works:

user@host:~$ python
Python 2.7.13 (default, Nov 24 2017, 17:33:09)
[GCC 6.3.0 20170516] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import re
>>> nametrans_test = lambda folder: re.sub('^INBOX$', 'Job/Klinik', 
>>> folder)
>>> nametrans_test('blah')
'blah'
>>> nametrans_test('INBOX')
'Job/Klinik'
>>> nametrans_test('INBOX/Calendar')
'INBOX/Calendar'
>>> nametrans_reverse = lambda folder: re.sub('^Job/Klinik/$', 'INBOX', 
>>> folder)
>>> nametrans_reverse('Job/')
'Job/'
>>> nametrans_reverse('Job/Klinik')
'Job/Klinik'
>>> nametrans_reverse('Job/Klinik/')
'INBOX'
>>> quit()

Looks like it works. :-)

Now for the offlineimaprc:

> [general]

> [Account KLS]
> remoterepository = host1
> localrepository = host2

> 
> [Repository host2]
> type = IMAP

> cert_fingerprint = keykeykey
> createfolders = False
> nametrans = lambda folder: re.sub( '^INBOX$', 'Job/Klinik', folder)
> 
> [Repository host1]
> type = IMAP
> ssl = yes
> cert_fingerprint = keykeykey
> folderfilter = lambda folder: folder in ['INBOX']
> readonly = true

Now, let's try this:

Looks to me as if the nametrans worked.
But when I try to sync the mails all mails from host1 get filed into the 
INBOX of host2.

What's my error? I'm a bit lost ...

    Thanks,


         Friedemann

P.S.: Sorry for not replying directly - I somehow don't receive the list 
mails so far and have to anwser after reading replies on the list 
archive.
