Hi all!

I'm a new at RC and have some problem with:
1. I have set auto_create user true on first login but is impossible user creation, show "login failed"

2. If I login on exist account it show INBOX folder only and when I try to delete a mail, show "Could not move the mesage".

P.S.
I'm trying to make an email service for my members and I want to create accounts automatically and some default forlders.

It seems you may be falling for the same misconception that a lot of people are. It could be a problem in the documentation, or something.

RC is merely an email client, like outlook or thunderbird, or any other IMAP email client. It just happens to be a web based one. When RC talks about creating users, it means creating users on the RC platform, so everyone can have their own settings, addressbook etc.

What RC does not do, is create users on your email platform. So whatever imap server you are using, be it dovecot, or courier, or whatever, will need to have user accounts made seperately, and before RC.

So, what you need to do is have a signup page for your members, where you ask them for a login name, and then create an imap account for that user through whatever method you have. (has nothing to do with RC). After that, users will be able to login to RC using the credentials you just made on your email platform.
