dovecot - Jul 2009 - Public mailboxes with ACL in 1.2

Hi,

I'm new to Dovecot 1.2 and I'd like to replace uw-imap.

I'd like to have the following setup:
- Personal mailboxes using maildir for all users (no problem)
- Public mailboxes for certain people who are in special groups from
/etc/group localed in /var/spool/public as a maildir with subfolders for
each group (which should only be visible for that group and also secured
by filesystem group permissions). At best those folders should be visible
for the users below "shared"-folder or parallel to the inbox.

The public mailboxes should be secured by custom ACLs (so that not all
ppl. can create new folders and so on).

How can I make Dovecot authenticate against pam and use groups in /etc/group?

When I activate the ACL plugin all public or shared mailboxes are hidden.
How can I avoid this for the public mailboxes?

Thanks in advance.
 Sven

After changing "acl = vfile" to "acl = vfile:/somepath" the
public
mailboxes became visible...
