<h1>Can I have subfolders not appear under INBOX?<a class="headerlink" href="#can-i-have-subfolders-not-appear-under-inbox" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>The altnamespace setting in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/etc/imapd.conf</span></code> changes the way the
mailbox list is presented to users (including fileinto directives in
Sieve scripts). Instead of appearing as subfolders of INBOX,
altnamespace makes subfolders appear at the same level as INBOX. It does
not affect the internal storage nor the way the folders are presented
through cyradm. See <a class="reference internal" href="../manpages/configs/imapd.conf.html#std-cyrusman-imapd.conf-5">imapd.conf(5)</a> for more information.</p>
