I'm not able to make shared maildirs work, so I'm hoping someone can tell me where I am going awry. I'm using Courier IMAP 1.6.2 on the server, and testing with both Mozilla Mail 1.3b and Evolution 1.2.1. I have also tested this on another Courier IMAP server (1.3.5) and I'm seeing the same thing, so that's why I think I'm doing something wrong.
The mailserver holds virtual mailboxes, and each Maildir is owned by user vmail, and Maildirs in /home/USER/Maildir/. So, as user vmail I am doing these things to setup a shared folder: mkdir /home/shared-maildirs maildirmake -S /home/shared-maildirs/its maildirmake -s write -f test /home/shared-maildirs/its Then, to set up the shared folder "its" for myself, I do: maildirmake --add its=/home/shared-maildirs/its /home/tack/Maildir/ README.sharedfolders says this last step will "install a link from a regular maildir to a sharable maildir." I'm seeing no such link anywhere, assuming it's talking about a symbolic link. I tried creating /home/tack/Maildir/shared-folders/ myself, but that didn't seem to make any difference. Well, perhaps I'm misunderstanding that part ... However, with Mozilla, when I go to Subscribe, I can see the folder shared.its.test. I click Subscribe and OK, and Mozilla says "Cannot subscribe to this folder." Evolution doesn't even show the shared tree, so I suspect this might be a problem with Evolution. I _thought_ I was setting this up right, but perhaps not. Can anyone point out where I've gone wrong?
