Clarification wanted on mail_access_groups vs. mail_privileged_group
...es seems to say that the mail_privileged_group = mail setting is all I should need to make dovecot use group mail to create dotlock files. My understanding from what I read is that mail_privileged_group is used to set the group used while creating dotlock files in (in my case) /var/spool/mail, and mail_access_groups is used to set the group used to actually access the mailbox. In my case, /var/spool/mail is group 'mail and group writable/searchable drwxrwxr-x 2 root mail 4096 May 7 08:35 /var/spool/mail and the individual mailboxes are owned by the respective users. So it seems that I would need &quot...

1.0.13: mail_extra_groups alternative syntax?
"Warning: mail_extra_groups setting was often used insecurely so it is now deprecated, use mail_access_groups or mail_privileged_group instead" I use the following: mail_extra_groups = mail nogroup Because I have the real and virtual accounts. What's the correct way to replace the above line? It seems that mail_privileged_group only accepts one group, but I need two. Any suggestion? Than...

/var/mail/<user> and mail group privileges
...first connection (ignore chown failure) or b)it should not work for following connection, so the behavior should be more consistent. Also it seems unclear what configuration option is required for making this work in new dovecot versions where configuration is split to mail_privileged_group and mail_access_groups. I see that after reading documentation in 10-mail.conf, some admins expects mail_privileged_group to be enough while mail_access_group is required to prevent fchown failure. Would it be possible to explicitly mention in the config file what option is required? I can add patch with this to our...

This seems to have the effect of setting both "mail_privileged_group = mail" and "mail_access_groups = mail" as well as issuing "Warning: mail_extra_groups setting was often used insecurely so it is now deprecated, use mail_access_groups or mail_privileged_group instead" when dovecot is started.

Multiuser attachment storage (mail_attachment_dir)
...et up attachment storage, but folders are receiving permission only for current user, so if another user is receiving a mail with same attachment he is getting permission denied error on reading hash file. Is it possible to setup global attachment storage to work with all users, at least in domain? mail_access_groups won't help, as folders are given 0 group permission. Umask and setfacl won't help either.

Dovecot + SpamAssassin through dovecot-antispam
...ders is a bit cryptic to me. What needs to be done to achieve that? The idea would be that even if I decided to allocated per-virtual-user a system user for stored files, all the files would still be stored and accessible with the same system group. I understand this would be done with the help of mail_access_groups = vmail, right? FWIW, I am getting inspiration from the following explanations: https://www.christianroessler.net/tech/2015/spamassassin-dovecot-postfix.html If I understand correctly, the guy is bypassing the authentication completely with allow_all_users=yes, right? I do not want to do that any...
