Yes and no. You can not create a folder outside the designated IMAPdir using Binc. However, a unix user can create a soft link from within the IMAPdir to someplace else and Binc will happily follow the link.
bincimap is designed to use UID security. Is attention paid to preventing file accesses outside of the designated IMAPdir?
See Andy's answer.I am developing an e-mail system under which all e-mail is owned by the "email" user. I want to have the e-mail system handle identifying and authenticating an IMAP connection, switch to the IMAPdir for the correct user, and exec bincimap.
Will that work?
