Hello list!

I'm trying to use the shared folders functionality but I've run into
some problems. First I'll describe my setup:

There is an account called 'caltha-office' that recieves the email
sent to the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] (there is an alias info:
caltha-office-info, and a .courier-info file in /home/caltha-office
that redirects those messages to ./Maildir/.info)
The maildir directory /home/caltha-office/Maildir was created using
maildirmake -S command -- I want this maildir to be shared by Caltha
staff members. The IMAP folder 'info' was created using -s group
option of maildirmake. Staff members rafal & pablo have their unix
users added to the unix group caltha-office -- they are able to view
the contents of the /home/caltha-office/Maildir/.info/new & cur
directories (I've verified that).
After doing the above I've checked that messages are successfully
delivered into the shared IMAP folder. I noticed that the message
files in the 'new' directory have 600 permissions, and thus they are
not readable to the staff members (although the 'new' directory is).
This makes me a little worried, but there was further trouble...

I've run the command 'maildirmake --add
caltha-office=/home/caltha-office/Maildir' command in each of the
staff members home directories. And tried to subscribe to the shared
folder (and asked my colleagues to do the same). The results were as
following:

Myself, using Mozilla 1.3b, I was able to see the folder listed
as 'shared/caltha-office/info' but I was not able to subscribe:
Mozilla displayed an error message 'Mail server responded: Cannot
subscribe to this folder..'

Pablo, using Evolution 1.2.1 was not able to see the folder in the
'show all folders' view, and when he switched to 'show folders with
names that begin with', and typed 'shared' into the input field
was able to see 'shared' and 'caltha-office' folders, but was not
able to subscribe to eiter of those. When he typed
'shared.caltha-office' into the input filed he was able to see
'caltha-office' as a subfolder of 'shared', but still not was not able
to subscribe to it. He didn't see the 'info' subfolder at all (and
obviously was not able to subscribe to it).

Has anybody around here experience with making these work?
I'd appreciate any tips!

R.
