Hello everybody,

After taking the following steps:

--------------------------------------------------

1. Creating a Mailbox

00000008 CREATE INBOX.berta
00000008 OK "INBOX.berta" created.

2. setting acl



3. Editing /etc/courier-imap/shared.tmp as fillows

maildiracl -set /var/qmail/mailnames/example.com/testuser/Maildir/ INBOX.berta anyone lr testu...@example.com courier courier /var/qmail/mailnames/example.com/testuser/ ./Maildir

The above should be on one line. Furthermore, the second and the third fields are numeric userid and groupids, not usernames and groupnames.

4. Calling sharedindexinstall

--------------------------------------------------






Now my question:

There is a file called /etc/courier-imap/shared/index with the following content: testu...@example.com courier courier /var/qmail/mailnames/example.com/testuser/ ./Maildir 1. Does the fact that I do find the content of shared.tmp/index in shared/index, after calling sharedindexinstall, prove that the configuration was correct?

No. All that sharedindexinstall does is make sure that your new shared index files are installed atomically, so that any process reading the shared index file never sees a partially-installed file.

LIST "" "INBOX.*"


LIST "" "#shared.*"

neither by owner nor by any other user.?

2. Why does LIST only return results on folder 'berta' when send as owner (testu...@example.com) like but not when send as

The owner never sees his own folders via #shared in any case. One of the problems is that the shared index file needs numerical uids and gids, not usernames and groupnames. You may very well have other issues, but that's one thing that needs to be fixed.
