dovecot - Apr 2012 - Permission problems when trying to create new folders with ACL plugin

Hi,

I have the a problem with shared folders and the ACL plugin. The user
"markus" has full access to "Shared/shared-user/Data":

3 GETACL "Shared/shared-user/Data"
* ACL "Shared/shared-user/Data" "markus" akxeilprwtscd
3 OK Getacl completed.

but creating a new subfolder under "Data" fails:

4 CREATE "Shared/shared-user/Data/New1" 
4 NO [NOPERM] Permission denied

This used to work with the same configuration and Dovecot 2.0.

Cheers,
Markus
