I'm trying to implement a shared mailbox: in other words, we have a
generic email address ("security@") which we want a number of users to
be
able to monitor. The problem I have is that users can see folders under
that shared mailbox but can't see the INBOX.
All the users in question have their own INBOX in their private namespace,
so does this raise a conflict with monitoring another mailbox's INBOX?
Configuration:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# dovecot -n
# 1.2.1: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 i686 Debian 5.0.2
log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S
disable_plaintext_auth: no
login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login
login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login
mail_privileged_group: mail
namespace:
type: private
separator: /
inbox: yes
list: yes
subscriptions: yes
namespace:
type: public
separator: /
prefix: shared/
location: maildir:/home/publicfolders:INDEX=~/Maildir/public
list: yes
namespace:
type: shared
separator: /
prefix: security/
location:
maildir:/home/securitymailbox/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/securitymailbox
list: yes auth default:
passdb:

Thanks,
