dovecot version = 2.2..27
I have a running debian server ( jessie-backports ) supporting email for three
different domains. It is working fine.
My boss has asked me to look into using Shared folders/mailboxes - for instance,
he wants selected users of Domain-A to be able to see the shared Inbox of the
user "support" who is also in Domain-A.?
Sorry if my questions are basic, but here goes:-
1. Can I simply change the relevant dovecot configuration files and introduce
Shared mailboxes into an already running system??
? Very basically, add the imap-acl plugin, the shared namespace, the dict file
and restart dovecot?
2. If I can do this, would it wipe out the tens of thousands of existing emails
I have on the system now????i.e. Does Sharing have to be introduced when new
email server is being brought up? Can it be added on-the-fly to my working
server?
Would the emails in /var/mail/vmail/Domain-A/alan/mail seemlessly populate
/var/mail/vmail/Domain-A/Shared/alan/mail after making such changes?
3. If adding the Sharing to my running system is possible, can I add it on only
one of my three domains? I have a test domain with one user.? ?My principle
domain ( Domain-A ) has many users, and as I stated previously, very very many
stored emails. Emails I absolutely cannot afford to lose.
Any insights are appreciated.
