Dear All, As mentioned previously at: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2006-May/013003.html create_dovecot_shares is now finished. Apologies to all for the time it has taken. Description: "Creating lots of dovecot-shared files, changing permissions and creating symlinks is a pain, especially when dealing with more than a handle of users. create_dovecot_shares helps. It modifies users home directories...

...ir shares, via the dovecot-shared file. Our problems are creating lots of dovecot-shared files and permissions and monitoring new Maildir folders that get added by the user (maybe a better way, would love to know). The tool is almost done, with the docs at: http://www.suretecsystems.com/our_docs/create_dovecot_shares.html Maybe this can be of use to others when it's finished. Thanks, Gavin. P.S> Might be redundant a little when the ACLs are complete, as per Timos' e-mail earlier today: http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2006-May/012991.html -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry.

Hi All, We've been thinking a lot about the 2 different ways dovecot implements shares; namespaces and symlinks. We currently use the symlink version for our clients and they use the create_dovecot_shares.pl tool we did at: http://dovecot.org/tools/ Our idea is either in the namespace declaration or if a folder has a dovecot-shared file/symlink, have a ldap lookup defined in say, dovecot-ldap-shares.conf or dovecot-ldap.conf, that queries a dn and looks for memberUID or a group dn, then those uids...

Hello, I'm using 0.99.14 with debian 2.6.8-2-386 #1 Tue Aug 16 12:46:35 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux and exim4. I use the shared folder with symlinks, created by the script create_dovecot_shares-1.06. I have set the permissions and use umask 0007 on dovecot and in exim in maildir_home: directory_mode = 0770 mode = 0660 every thing works well, but if I'm moving a mail from my inbox with thunderbird into the shared mailbox it gets permissions -rw------- 1 user group 11811 2006-1...
