Hi everyone,

I'm running Courier 0.37.0 with the IMAP server. I've got a shared 
maildir with a number of folders. I've created a new folder with:

maildirmake -f myfolder -s read,group .

Which sets the folder up with read access for the group, but no 
access for others. The problem is that I can only see the folder 
through IMAP if I set the group of .myfolder to my own group. If I 
chgrp -R to another group that I'm in, the folder is no longer 
visible via IMAP.

This appears to be related to what I set my gid to in userdb. If I 
change the gid to match the group of the folder, I can see it again.

I'm surprised by this, since the imapd process itself is running as 
me (I'm using userdb for CRAM-MD5, but I have a system account as 
well), so I thought it should be able to read the folder. My account 
is definitely in the appropriate group, and I can read the contents 
of the folder locally.

So I haven't been able to make an IMAP folder that can only be read 
by members of a particular group. Can anyone suggest a way to do this?

Thanks.
