Howdy folks! I've been trying to research how to (or if possible at all) implement public folders using the namespace feature on a server with multiple virtual domains. After about an hour of looking around I'm a little confused. :) I guess there are two questions: 1) Is it possible / does it work? 2) If yes, does anyone have a sample configuration or write-up of How You Did It[TM] to share? I've been mainly focusing on the thread from here: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2006-June/013683.html and the wiki ACL documentation: http://wiki.dovecot.org/ACL but I'm having a hard time piecing it all together... Thanks for any and all tips! --Jo

That's pretty helpful. I think I'm still missing something though. I have the following configuration: namespace public { separator = . prefix = Public Folders. location = maildir:/var/mailstore/shared-folders/%d/Maildir } namespace private { separator = . prefix inbox = yes } With this, "Public Folders" shows up (testing with Thunderbird) but not as an italic special folder (does that make sense?) as it does on all other accounts I have on other servers which support public folders. I created a folder here: /var/mailstore/shared-folders/domain.com/Maildir/.Announcements which also shows up nicely, I can copy email in there and subscribe and unsubsribe to this subfolder, but clicking on "Public Folders" gives: Mailbox doesn't exist: Public Folders. which I'm sure is because I've missed or misunderstood something :) Any ideas?
