Hi!

I try to set up a virtual shared folders on my debian system, the mta is

http://www.courier-mta.org/imap/README.sharedfolders.html

but unfortunately I don't understand what I have to write to
the /etc/courier-imap/shared/index file.

The situation: There is two virtual mailbox: the Maildirs are:

/var/qmail/mailnames/domain.com/user1/Maildir
/var/qmail/mailnames/domain.com/user2/Maildir

the owner of these directories are: popuser:popuser

I set up with maildirmake -S a third Maildir, path
is: /var/imapshared/Maildir. and a "Notices" folder with maildirmake -s

qmail. I read this manual,

The maildirmake command creates filesystem permissions-based shared folders, not shared folders for virtual accounts.

What I need: I'd like to configure that this "Notices" folder should be
visible as shared imap folder of the user domain.com/user1 and

My questions:
(1) what do I write to the /etc/courier-imap/shared/index file?

domain.com/user2

The same thing you'd write for any other virtual mail account. Instead of setting it up with maildirmake, which is wrong anyway, it should be configured just like any other mail account.

(2) who should are the owner of the /etc/courier-imap/shared/index, what
should be the extension?

The owner is not important, as long as the file is world-readable.

(3) what should be the access control list file of the
folder /var/imapshared/Maildir?

That's entirely up to you. imapshared is no different than any other virtual mail account. Put an admin password on it, log in to it, via any ACL-capable IMAP client, and set the ACLs on the mailbox according to whatever access you wish to give any indiviual loginid for that mailbox.
