Hello, can I anywhere get the name of the currently logged in user? I'm still implementing a custom ACL plugin (IMAP commands MYRIGHTS, GETACL, SETACL, DELETEACL), and for some functions (for example storing the current folder's ACL in combination with this username) I need to obtain the currently logged in IMAP user. Is this possible? If yes - how? Thanks in advance.

Do you mean all IMAP commands from scratch? Why not use the existing acl and imap_acl plugins and only implement a new ACL backend instead of the default vfile one? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
