dovecot - Nov 2007 - namespace public folders

Hi list,
Here is thing im trying to accomplish. I would like to setup public folders
which resposible for delivering mails for some speical addresses like info at
example.com. And it will be perfect if "seen" status for this folder
will be saved per user. I mean if one user read message and set it as read other
user should see it still as unread. As I far i know there some limitation in 1.0
tree but not in lates 1.1.
My question is can I do such setup with dovecot+postfix. Im really appreciate
for simple examples how can i accomplish this kind setup if it possible :)

Hoi,

AFAIK the "Seen" Flag is not maintained on a per user basis.

I do the delivery to the public folders via the "aliases" mechanism
and
the "safecat" program
<http://jeenyus.net/~budney/linux/software/safecat.html>
which delivers messages from stdin to a Maildir specified on the cmdline.
Along with the safecat comes a "maildir" sh-script that is a wrapper
for
safecat and makes things shorter.

    info: "|/usr/local/bin/maildir /var/spool/pubfolders/.info"
    contact: "|/usr/local/bin/maildir /var/spool/pubfolders/.info"
    sales: "|/usr/local/bin/maildir /var/spool/pubfolders/.sales"

To work around permission problems I have made the safecat programm
setuid dovecot user, executable for owner and group and gave it to the group
postfix handles aliases deliveries with, e.g.:
    ---s--x--- 1 dovecotu mail 21024 Oct 19 14:26 /usr/local/bin/safecat

HTH,
