After putting together a few mailboxes, and a few group mail accounts with tuned ACLs I hit a it of a snag. MS Outlook 2003 SP1 (and probably others)
can't see the #shared folders :(
I googled around, but couldn't find anything relevant, nor could I find anything in the READMEs.
From watching the IMAP conversation, Outlook is "getting it wrong" (no surprise there then). It makes no NAMESPACE call, instead relying on LIST "." "*" to find all the folders, and LSUB "." "*" to find the subscribed folders.
Is it possible to configure Outlook to know about the # marked folder,
From what I recall reading some time ago, no.
But that's just hearsay. You should try the appropriate microsoft.* Usenet newsgroup.
and behave accordingly; or more likely, configure Courier IMAP to use a undifferentiated namespace?
My apologies if I've missed something obvious, pointers and search terms gratefully received!
Actually you did miss something very obvious: it is not in Microsoft's interests to deliver robust IMAP support in Outlook; they would prefer you to use Outlook exclusively with Exchange.
