dovecot - Sep 2008 - umask and mails

Hello.

I would like to have rights like 750 in my mailboxes
(in /var/mail/vmails/domain.tld/user).

http://wiki.dovecot.org/DovecotServerInstallations/RHEL/2_Users?highlight=(mask)

I see an option called umask (in dovecot.conf). I set umask = 0750 in
dovecot.conf.

This option add good rights to directories, but not to the mail
received (always in 700).

Do you have a solution?

Thanks.

That setting is deprecated, don't use it (it does not work anyway).

Create a file named 'dovecot-shared' in each of your folders, give it
the mode you want your files to have, and files will be created with
that mode. See http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes for details.
